Ok, so, one week to finish board layout, another week to produce boards, another week to assemble everything, another week till the things arrive to the users. 4 weeks. We will see them last week of December.

I understood they have those ASICs chips already, but they are forced to underclock them to last longer, and so to change the board (and power circuit). There is nothing extraordinary in what is left, in theory we should not see them delaying more than a month, imo.
However, since their devices will now do more hashing than BFL, I wonder how will BFL react. Will they change too boards, overclock their ASICs (and risk to run into problems)? Or maybe they will just instruct users how to overclock them.

But what if they purposely "delay" things to "test" them more?

not this again....
They could, but it's a trade off: They'd sacrifice reputation vs. short term profits.
