I will see how things pan out.. I am not preordering anything... If that means I am SOL well so be it.

maybe they are afraid of competition
so they dont want to disclose anything
100% correct... They wouldn't be spending so much on advertising if this wasn't the case. |

This is crazy... These things are supposed to ship in few weeks and their just bidding on equipment? They said the first batch was too large for them to produce, even with this hardware. The initial batch will be manufactured at the same plant as as the current Singles, and shipped in a large batch. This hardware is for after they're all caught up, so they can make a unit and ship it within days of ordering. Is that something similar to what happened with the FPGA's? |

Right but they accept pre-orders on a set date... Do you think Apple or a game producer would get away with taking pre-orders with a release date of Oct 28th 2012 and not ship until 6 months later?
You know how many MMO's/video games this happens to? ? So game dev's take pre orders months prior to the game even being finished? I really doubt this ever happens.... I'll bet most take pre orders on games that have a beta released already. This is not a game though... well it sorta is  |

E.g. in another thread someone asked for the structure size (110, 130, ... ? nm) of BLFs ASICs.
Why is not even this information publicly available? I mean it's only two more weeks until the scheduled launch date.
Because no company is actually required to give you any of this information, you're just spoiled by the radical transparency of most Bitcoin ventures. BFL isn't doing anything that Samsung, Intel et al wouldn't do. Maybe because no company sells preorders? Companies like Intel are selling products that are available in stores, people do not have to ask questions to find out whether their products work. just buy. WTF world do you live in? Tons of companies sell preorders. Apple sold preorders on the iPhone 5, nearly every video game that is released comes with the option to preorder... Perhaps Intel specifically doesn't sell preorders but it's not like it's an unestablished crazy upside down concept. Not only do lots of companies sell their products via preorder, but they do so without releasing even as much information as BFL has and with hundreds or thousands of times BFL's preorder numbers. iPhone 5 buyers, for example, might have liked to know that their maps were going to be shit on iOS 6 but was this info available before they held the product in their hand? No, because Apple kept their mouth shut about that, and nearly every, "feature." Same with the "grip of death" "feature" in previous hardware. Again if you don't like the way BFL behaves, vote with your wallet and buy from a competitor but for the love of god stop acting like what they're doing is abnormal - the way they're working is the way most businesses work, you're just used to a level of transparency you don't often find outside of Bitcoin. If you want to see Bitcoin adopted outside of its current niche market, you're going to have to get used to the way normal businesses operate. Right but they accept pre-orders on a set date... Do you think Apple or a game producer would get away with taking pre-orders with a release date of Oct 28th 2012 and not ship until 6 months later? |

I like this post: Those pictures are the pictures we based the purchase off of. We did not inquire as to the GPS coordinates of their origin and assume that the pictures represent the actual product. If they don't, well then, we will deal with that then. Hopefully you don't get a pallet full of bricks? They don't even have the machinery to create these units that are shipping in two weeks? |

Just keep on tapping each other on the back, singing "It's all fine. Bitcoin network is secured, >50% attack is history! We rule!"
What a bunch of complete retards.
