Is there any way to tell if they arent setting up their own separate mining farm on the side ?
Yes. They sold shares based on a 12Thps mining operation. If they do not reach that consistently (summed over whichever pools they mine) then they are either not delivering on promises or mining solo and not telling anyone. I'm confident they'll not be doing anything dodgy. Their first step was to mine at a known and very public pool - this is important so investors can clearly see how much ASICMiner is returning.

I`ve heard that the avalon "eats"(slows) the internet, is that true? BTC GUILD at high difficult >100.

It shouldn't, at least mining on Eligius. I would imagine BTCGuild would handle it fine as well.

Apparently it's good to 300 mhz, but hits a brick wall there. Believed to be a coding or software issue.

No. The units come preconfigured with a default pool and credentials, so if you follow those stats, you can see how many units are powered on but not reconfigured yet.

LOL... would be neat if they were preconfigured to mine in a pool with custom user and pointed to buyers bitcoin address. I guess thats not the case. if you have an avalon please log into that GUI.

Doesn't it make sense to just ship a default and let each buyer spend 5 minutes configuring the device vs them having to configure all 300 and then ship? Break the work out among all buyers so everyone gets the gear faster.

Break the work out among all buyers so everyone gets the gear faster. sure man, no doubt. im just saying making it plug and play would be nice, with DHCP and all. you already see lots of people asking how to set the thing up. one simple script could get that holy cgminer file with preconfigured info, IF, the they had all the data in good shape. which is not the case, since they have to manually check all the orders. so they are already having that extra work. and of course, dont forget that those 5 minutes to get acquainted with machine will be the most exciting of all avalon experience. so still valid.

If you look in their github, you can see that there's actually very little to edit. There's space for three pools and that's it. It takes the user all of 30 seconds to edit. If they did it for people, it doesn't save the end user any time, especially if things change between when they get the pool info and when the device ships. In addition, they'd be having to match physical devices with shipping labels, etc where right now, they just stuff any device in a box and ship. If you ordered, shut up and enjoy your interest(tm). If you didn't order, you're in the wrong thread. :p

Im waiting Avalon and Im sure I can beat that 30 seconds set up via SSH
