I think I would rather receive my unit untested rather than have it run under-current. I'm not an EE...which is probably part of the reason I am paranoid about these sorts of things. I'm of the same mind, I'd prefer to have it in the condition it was received in. well that's certainly fair enough. anyone else got a thought on the matter?

friedcat sent only tested units. I think testing is unnecessary. In my gb i will test some random samples. But priority is on fast shipping

Shipping bulk orders first is ok but I think sending in the order they have been paid is more fair. And in addition it helps motivating people to pay as soon as possible. (not that it took long this time)

Personally, I preffer faster shipping over testing.

I think snare rolls should be used as a currency.

My ASICMINER USB Erupter showed up about an hour ago. Been playing with the Icarus timing settings still not quite got it right yet. Obviously yes I'm getting around 300MH/s out of it. Currently best settings are for anyone wondering while I sort it out: --icarus-options 115200:2:1 --icarus-timing short A pic or 2 Click for bigger Edit: the USB chip is: ID 10c4:ea60 Cygnal Integrated Products, Inc. CP210x UART Bridge / myAVR mySmartUSB light kano has his dev unit.

I'm practically willing to forfeit my spot to someone.

i know it IS included. i assume attached, as, why not? but i also know they don't technically need them. so who knows. i could get two boxes, one full of heatsinks "no, it's not a solid block of metal! honest!" and one full of usb sticks.
I could see logic to having them loose. I plan to have mine heatsinked, but I suspect that many/most people will not. Probably the less screwing things on and off the pcb, the better. I'm glad to hear that there will be an option. And I never thought of the utility that they may have in shipping I will attach the heatsink, if they come separate, to mine. Cooler electronics tends to be happier / longer lived electronics.

+1 +1 Also like the idea that after bulk orders go out, the remaining orders are shipped based on the order the payment was received.

Shipping bulk orders first is ok <sigh> Much as it pains me to say it, I agree with this because it gets the mostest out the fastest. but I think sending in the order they have been paid is more fair. And in addition it helps motivating people to pay as soon as possible.
I fully agree with this. However, nothing was stated in the OP, 'the deal', about shipping priorities. And I hate any changing of the rules mid-game. Therefore, IMO, arklan is free to ship these in any order which floats his boat. -- BTW, ASICMiner just sold 140 more blades. So that's about another 1.7th coming on line, about 2% addition to total network hash rate, just from that sale within the next one to two weeks.

ok ok. no testing. and i'll ship the bulks out first, then everybody else. given that the bulk orders represent a little more then HALF to total orders, i don't think it'll make more then maybe one days difference what order i ship the rest in. come on friedcat, accept payment...

Well, it is still another six to ten days before friedcat is expecting to receive these things from manufacturing himself. Everything I've seen so far is that ASICMiner has only accepted payment when they have goods ready to ship. A refreshing change of pace from some other companies in this market space.
