Information on BFL Preorders

[Phinnaeus Gage]

After waiting this many months and losing out on thousands in BTC profits from coins we could have bought (but instead spent on BFL rigs), it is safe to say that BFL customers are at this point, as we say in the poker world, "pot committed." We have put so much money in the pot already that folding at this point in time is simply too painful - its better to see our hand through to the end - win or lose, we have have to bite the bullet.

but you had a 2 7 off suit dude.  have we seen the flop yet?

I want to see the gaming license of the dealer.

I really want to see the flop so I can figure out if there will be a turn card or just a muck.
btw, where is the steel rod?

I received my pre-oderous BFL rig and it is now plugged in generating 20 Gigavaporhashes per second.
You are all insanely jealous of me.

To get to a realistic number like 10,000 you need more than just flippers and hoarders.   We need a VC firm to step up and start financing things that will require stupid capital (because of regulations and compliance) to get BTC used in the mainstream.   POS terminals is the best idea (until visa/mc lobby you to death which is why someone has to build something and then get serious VC money).   I am trying to put together some stuff but it costs a lot and it is a balance between hoarding coins and financing things that help your hoard go up.

Yep, 10,000 will require serious development - good luck to you, and let's hope BFL pulls through alright. To be fair, part of my complaint against them is due to the insane bull run - not something in their control.

And at 0 watts no less. So jealous.

Let's hope we're not about to suffer a bad beat from BFL after getting our money in good.

Hi all,

This thread is to share information about what we know in regards to BFLs pre-orders. Specifically, I would like to figure out what their earliest order numbers are.

Here is some stuff that people have voluntarily shared (it is, hence, un-verified as far as I can tell):
http://bfl.ptz.ro/

Does anyone know what the first order number should be? What kind of unit it was?

I am quite surprised that the jalapeno isn't the most popular selling model. People are doing this to try and make money, not because the want to have fun with hardware, that's for sure.

Holy Shit! That explains why there's been no call for tradeins yet, for only Jolly Jellies are currently being shipped and the tradeins don't apply. Slick move!
