"I don't see any possible way we will be able to release the bASIC before mid January."

good news for BFL and Avalon if they can get something out the door!

Almost a month after BFL. I'm sorry, I really am. I like the competition, but I'm glad I choose BFL.

Has BFL actually given a hard release date yet?

No need, their voodoo dept is working 24/7 to push everybody else two three months in 2013.  Grin

Josh said yesterday the week of the 11th. I'm REALLY hoping he meant December.  Wink

These fucking companies.. This pisses me off, this is why I despise ASICs
No companies should have power over the mining landscape whose sole market is miners themselves. Fuck this shit!
They are all BS. ASICs will keep getting pushed back n back.... just watch. Probably will be 2014 before they finally make it out and not blowing peoples houses up or something stupid.

i was starting to regret not ordering one of each but for now it looks like I (maybe) made the right choice going with BFL

i think it's still far from a sure thing that BFL is going to beat them out the door though, just based on the way things have been going

i guess pushbacks are bound to happen but i've never seen anything like this ASIC industry.. i'm glad i'm only investing in a miner as a hobby or i'd have pulled all my hair out by now!

has avalon been as bad with dates and info as these two?

Team Avalon has not yet had the harsh blade of time scrape up against one of their announced dates.

Last I heard they are targeting a January 14th 2013 release.

Nope, They have actually pushed their dates forward to a sooner release date. They are apparently playing it very low key. They said we could vote on the color of the device in about a week time. The next update #5 is scheduled for this week.

Probably just more stringing of people along. You'd probably be better off placing a bet against it and reaping the rewards.

I didn't bank on it. I have plenty of money, but it's nice to pay for something with the profits of a fantastical machine.
Derp derp.
