There may be a an actual price on the SFARDS mining hardware next month. Expect it to be high priced.
Of all the things this is one I'm hoping is wrong. All speculation has lead to a high expected price.
I would love to have a dual miner again. I hope they price it fair and not rediclous numbers to order. They started out fun with contest's and involvement, then got quiet. I'm not sure what to think.
While a "not high priced" SFARDS dual-miner would be interesting, I don't think it's in the cards. While I don't think there is definitive word on the miner, we do have some insight beyond the rumored $129 figure. In the "Group Buy" sub-forum, there an expected sale of chips next month. The quoted figure is $1199 for 40 chips (i.e. $30/chip). Either the dualminer member is trying to make a killing (getting them for say $5/chip), or SFARDS has a fairly high price on the chip. I think SFARDS really thinks this is a unique/premium chip and wants a premium price.
I think they will be proven wrong, and that there is a miniscule market for a $1000+ Dual Miner at the present time. Of course maybe they are hoping for a big jump in BTC/LTC price.
