It is for sure a quick update. But is it a "couple of updates"?

[dhenson]

Final production implies all components are in hand and delivered to production facility, including working chips...

Or am I being too optimistic?

Anyone that thinks this is somehow a bad thing is being nonsensical.

[Xialla]

real news:

*no refunds
*no video

so nothing about September delivery. Anyone except -Redacted- still believe, that KNC fulfill their promise and deliver until end of September?

Yes, you are.

It could mean anything.  Since they werent going to do any chip level testing until after board assembly, its entirely possible they still have no clue if the thing actually works or not.
If you want to be pessimistic, next week perhaps they will produce one blue puff of smoke after the other as they turn on each assembled machine.

TL;DR sit back and wait.

Wow I see the panic starting.

Good news for all of you who are starting to worry,

Say the word and I will start group buys and buy all of you out.

Plenty of folks are ready to scoop up your orders should you lose the stomach for the process.

Very funny guys

 I will coordinate a group buy to buy out your purchase for exactly what you paid for it.

My message was put on the forum to help assist people who have a need to get their money back if they need it or don't have the stomach for the process.

Not to help you make a profit.

Grow up.

...
The big news is that all the production orders that are due for delivery before October 15th have now been confirmed with the factory for final assembly and our production schedule is now locked. As such, we are not able to make any more changes.
...

Interesting. If the schedule is really locked, KnC should at least tell us when the schedule starts.

He will get a decent salary for holding people from getting refunds.
He has a day off finally, lol.

Knc, my offer is one mercury with hosting, for stopping posting there.

A unit in China? On the 29th? Where are these being produced again? Millions of components were arriving in Sweden a few days ago, and I was under the impression that was where they were being assembled?

So, either a rig is going half way round the world by 29th...or all rigs are doing the reverse?
The first option seems most likely so that means a finished rig by tomorrow evening to get there for that demo. They'll lose half a day in transit due to timezones.

Someone could be posting pics late tomorrow..which may explain Bitcoinorama vanishing?

Soon we all start seeing this... A lot of talk, nothing real.
Maybe KNC themselves haven't even seen the chip and earliest shipped orders will be late October or November.

Seriously, which ASIC vendor didn't have any problems that caused delays?

And KNC is the magic Duck that goes and does no mistakes?

I HOPE SO YES!^^

One bit of good news, they are on record again stating DELIVERY before Oct 15th for all 1st batch orders.

Unless they use Josh's dictionary meaning delivered to UPS.

And now for something completely different.

I wonder why they have silkscreen and mounting holes for TWO 6 pin power connectors on each module?
It could be a trivial PCB routing issue.
The blue cables in the case pictures could be Y cables.

I hope it somehow means twice the Gh/s per module but I am not counting those Gh/s before they materialize.

EDIT s/by/before/  and last sentence did not make sense as originally written.

lets turn this thread into "where in the world is carmen sandiego bitcoinrama".

sweden, china, uk?

lets make a bitbet.

[The Avenger]

If they don't ship by end of Sept, pulling the plug on refunds will be considered a shitty move and their reputation they've worked hard to build will take a big hit.

I'm sure they are aware of this, so it's interesting to see what happens.
