Yay! they are not a scam at least. This means they'll eventually ship a product.
fyi: we reached that stage 1.2 month before we shipped. Let's see how they handle their remainder issues.
Really? If they were a scam you could expect as realistic a 'prototype test' as they could muster, and I saw nothing in that vid which
proved much of anything. It amazes me to see how many people consider a vid of some numbers changing on a screen to be 'proof' of anything more than a tiny amount of scripting ability.
You could also expect that they would make the 'test' look just good enough to give people hope (and thus not cancel their pre-orders) but bad enough to have a reason for another bunch of delays.
The only thing which gives me some amount of hope is that they made things look worse than they really needed to.
As I said for Avalon, I won't believe with a high degree of certainty that they can hash unless they can publish a set of hashes within {x} amount of time of a known dataset being globally available. And even then, not until a very credible third-party is standing over their shoulder to make sure that they don't have an Avalon hiding under the desk or something of that nature. I wouldn't trust these people at all.
