But can you post the shell design of the jalapeno, so I can order one? I won't if it looks like a cupwarmer btw.

or maybe Smiley

Black Tested http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&NR=1&v=cMPd9DyTpKg <-- 111F Hot Setting  71F Cool Setting (Would heat up the asic so not recommended) Cheesy

Whatever the case I suspect that it may be using Peltier Devices for Thermoelectric Cooling/Heating

That is actually a good idea.  However, as they are suppoosed to start shipping in 3 weeks, I doubt that it could be incorporated into the design!

I assume that they are still on track to stary shipping in Oct?  I havent heard any different.

Let us leave the Jalapeno aside. It can only warm a cup of coffee, so nothing great.

Look at leaked image of Single SC prototype (or is it MiniRigSC?):

The Jalapeno's coffee warming ability is kind a secondary focus and of efficacious it might be is somewhat dubious... but it will hash, oh yes. Smiley

As far as power on the singles go, we are going with a different power brick, but your old ones should still be compatible with the new units.

Can you tell us what process you're using for these chips, eg 90nm SOI?

This is interesting. I could have sworn they said it would have an internal power supply. But their website is down (related to the godaddy outage?) currently so I can't check.
At least we can power the things with our efficient PC power supplies.

The internal PSU bit on the website was a mistake.  It's since been corrected.  It will be an external PSU.

Ok, so can we look forward to the same industrial design?

This is really a dealbreaker for me, so you should provide pictures!

The real question is why aren't you, for you it's win/win?!

You'd better make sure it doesn't look like an Apple product (rectangular with rounded corners).  Otherwise, you might get sued for patent infringement!
