[LambChoppery]

Does anyone know if you can use the java app at bitminter to mine using a USB asic device?

Yes, I think it is supported.

Have you had a response from BitMinter?

[Kaepora]

Although I haven't received my ASIC yet, will BitMinter support it?

All ASICs can be used with the BitMinter pool. But BitMinter client only supports the BFL ASICs so far. It may also work with the new tiny USB dongle ASICs from ASICminer, as they function like an Icarus FPGA. But that has not been tested with BitMinter client yet.

I'm on Bitminter. With USB Block Erupters. Very easy setup. Theoretic rate however is about double what I'm being paid out in reality but from what I gather, payout is often random to start but will grow with time. Is that true ? How this all works is beyond me at the moment but I'm learning every day.

Payout seems to be based on your last 10 shifts; currently about 20 hours of mining. Your hash numbers should be within 10% of those on the site. Look for hardware errors or high stale count if this is not the case.
