and your just running the barrle plug cable connected to two of the plugs on the BB?

how many  can each BB support/>

I am getting very good power numbers using a platinum psu a sea sonic 1200 watt high end beast  left over from gnu mining ltc.

about 64gh and 70 watts for 2 units.    that is about 32gh and 35 watts for one unit and they are really quiet.

My only complaint is the dc cords for grid seeds are too tight for this.

canary are you supplying bricks vs dc power cord do it yourself?

Dilema.....  order more of these,    or wait for the x-box....  ?

canary, if thats not too indiscreet, from whom did you already ordered AMgen3 based products? Rockminer? will you also be reselling AM chips

Will these chips ever be available to the public; in reasonable quantities ? 
I'm sure www.digikey.com/ or www.jameco.com and others, could sell a fair number.
Any resellers planned for this summer ?

Canary is one of my favorite forum distributors!

Let me get 10 units! I'll PM you later today.

;-)

FC stepping out of his cave right for summer!

Yes, money printing machines. Probably best to this project to get off the ground first and have something requiring power before concentrating on the power source Not that I'd be against it, its actually my field and I'd stand a good chance of benefiting from any bounties, but this has clear and achievable objectives and widening the scope to that kind of scale would vastly complicate things.

We can put some equipment for generating hydro electricity. Instead of storing electricity generated, we can connect it directly to the Block Erupter. Fixing a switch will help to change the electricity source in an easier way. So the miners can save some electricity costs. The utmost thing is, Block Erupter mustn't be a big one. It sounds like stupid but if you do this you can have a better sales and miners can get more profit!
You can see this site for making it.
You can fix a small 1 litre storage. I hope you will look forward about this.

Update
1) We would like to let the project run by contributors. Please mail to jason@bitquan.com to discuss details of pull requests. And if you would like to help us by being our project manager who could maintain both this thread and github repos, please also apply by mailing to jason@bitquan.com so that we could give you payments covering your time and opportunity cost.

2) Our support for contributors besides direct reward are twofold. First, we offer sample chips to the contributors. Second, we are able to manufacture sample boards and system according to the contributors' designs. The average time of making PCB is three working days, while SMT takes only one working day.

3) We offer Bitcoin rewards to contributors who submit significant improvements or new designs. And when the de-facto core developer team emerges, we make it official in the form of continuing salary.

4) The next gen chips, BE300, are likely to be compatible with BE200 with respect to pinouts and package. Therefore all efforts on BE200 based designs are always useful in the long term.

Can someone tell me how loud one of these running is? Will I notice it much in my office?

Has there been one ASIC delivered on time, as promised? I'm not joking. Has there been?

Again you're probably right, but over what timescale? At roundabout 990PH the electricity cost - even at 4  cents per kWh - is the same as the amount earned (at Btc = $500). If you have any other information relevant to this that you'd like to share with us, we'd be most grateful. Not to use against AM, I hasten to add, they have ever right to exist and make money the same any other asic companies. i did like their new and the concept, it's a real shame that it didn't come in at the planned power specs. Still, they have plenty of time to take another pop at it.

90% chance it's a scam
5% chance it's a real company which fails to deliver anything
4.9% chance this company delivers underperforming/delayed hardware

Friedcat doesn't seem to be that interested in mining at the moment. As long as the chips sell, it's better to just sell them instead of use them to mine. They earn more revenue and have a shorter turnaround time (sold instantly instead of "mining back" the investment) and thus can be paid out and reinvested much faster. Although I agree that a decent amount of self mining makes sense (BTC price increasing, constant income, independence)

Even so, he holds his coins and that's what matters.

"He who holds his coins will enter the kingdom of Satoshi" - Me.

Maybe we can suggest a BTC buy/sell program where "X" amount of BTC is bought or sold each day to average prices and maintain a BTC to USD ratio.

  Already did. Anyone that has been around the block even once with ASICminer/FC knows there is no panic. Things are lost in translation and in internet forums.
