Strange though we don't hear anything from KNC about ANYTHING until some news about other companies coming out with a possible delivery. I bet that made KNC's head turn a little bit...so much they had to make a news annoucement in advertising selling hardware again. Pretty soon we will have other companies to finally choose from and won't be locked to a mouse quiet KNC. Even to this day, have they helped anyone on their own forum? Even after saying they would provide that support. It will definitely make me think twice if I buy any more hardware.
KNC will have ZERO 28nm competition until March/April. All of the other companies have committed to multiple batches that won't finish shipping until then. And until then, KNC will be they only vendor able to ship from stock if they so choose. "First to market" is a massive advantage for KNC and you can bet that they will take full advantage of it. I was thinking KNC would be on Neptune 20nm by then, and there simply is no competition.... The bolded sentence simply means that no other 28nm competitor will be selling units from stock like KNC could theoretically do if they wanted. All other competitors are committed to fulfilling preorder batches until March/April.

Anyone have an inside scoop of when KNC will possibly list Jupiters? It will be Christmas in 11 days, then New Year's so anything to do with shipping will be delayed or who knows what. Are they thinking of releasing maybe this week, the next? I'm probably positive someone must have called them to ask. And most likely wouldn't post that "secret" info here.
Given their stated reasoning for releasing another batch, I would expect them to wait until a competitor actually ships something.

Given their past pricing trend I am expecting the new batch to be anywhere between USD 2995-3995

Phoenix:
Not having a go here, I assure you. Just wondering, because I'd like to know where to rank what you say.
In the past, because I follow this board, I've seen your ... hundreds of posts. Some have been helpful, and I found some, like I'm sure a lot here did - kind of hilarious, as we watched you stumble through trying to set up your first saturn and posting here every 10 minutes ... then, the more recent "humblebrags" that have served to make some people angry.
That said, some of you stuff has been genuinely helpful.
But, to my question: Can you disclose the nature of your relationship with KNC please? Like, fully? ... ie: what discounts you may or may not have gotten, etc?
Again, not having a go at you .... just wondering what weight to put on what you say. And, I don't mean that negatively. Like, I envy your close relationship. Same as I envy bitcoinorama for stepping up like he did. He earned his rep here as a solid dude, and his position shouldn't be begrudged.
At any rate, genuinely curious, not trying to be a dick. Feel free to PM, if you'd rather do that.

I hope that KNC sells their premined miners for BTC only. Show some love for the btc faithful, not just those who mine and cash out to fiat immediately.

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Has there been anyone else mentioning that they can't change their pool config on their hosted miners? KNC seems to have changed up the interface and I can no longer make any changes... Clicking Save just reverts it to the previous settings.

Old news. And don't expect a massive price decrease or you'll be majorly disappointed.

It's absurd to think KNC will be selling Jupiters from stock for approximately the same $/GH as Neptunes that won't be available until Q1-Q2 of 2014. We'll be lucky if they don't raise the price from batch 2. I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I am.

Prepare yourself for the next major spike in difficulty... They’ve started assembling Baby Jets (overnight tonight). They aim by night’s end to have the first round of assembly done for 400 Baby Jets. Hooray!

Network Protection Statement only makes sense in case buying option is limited to existing customers and @absolutely competitive price. Let's see Argh, here we go again! Competitive price means what exactly? No one else will be selling a 28nm miner off-the-shelf ready for immediate shipping other than KNC. Therefore KNC has no competition and can set the price wherever they want. Do you think HashFast or Cointerra can actually be considered competition? If they are to be considered competition you would need to receive your HashFast miner the same time as you would an order from KNC. Unfortunately if you ordered from HashFast today you wouldn't get your miner until April. Hardly competition then, right? Besides, those batch 1 BsbyJets cost a fortune when they were ordered many months ago.

So I have one november jupiter that refuses to stay on. Tried each individual ASIC separately, no dice, tried swapping the 1500w EVGA with a 860W Corsair, corsair didnt even turn it on (fans spun up but BBB no lights). Anyone got any ideas?
I'd guess there's a ribbon cable plugged backwards to the controller board possible or faulty cabling to the BBB.

Right now they could sell as many Jup as they want. They would sell them from stock asap even price tagged at 10k due to non existing competition. ...But - judging their overall beheviour from the past - I think they will honour their Network Protection Statement which has only one purpose: To protect the network share of existing customers (batch 1 & batch 2 Jup and to some extend Neptune pre-order guys). This means a) They do it coordinated (announce sales and condition 2-3 days in advance) b) They sell relatively cheap (lower than the potential maximum market price e.g. between 3-5k) c) They sell only to existing customers in limited amount (maybe 1 unit per previous unit bought) This would be perfect execution and I would draw my head. Maybe, only maybe - they will just pump & dumb for all at premium price generating maximum profit - definitely a possibility... but I doubt that
