I'll find out. I believe he is a little USB memory stick too, so you could probably boot your rPi with him.
Are you using the same design the BPMC dudes are using ? Have a few of their first run USB sticks on order, and interested in ordering more if you're offering them for sale here Stateside ! Exciting stuff.

what was the price in BTC?
BTC was really low. An Aug kit ran roughly 225-250 BTC. They will unlikely break even in BTC. BTC was around $80 when I placed my order, so it worked out to 240 BTC for me. I am actually systematically cashing out of BTC, so my motives for buying do not take into consideration ROI optimization.

I bought it from BFSB in europe, paying VAT ontop, when BTC was around 62 EUR, paid 310 BTCs. I'll never breakeven on this. Mining is dead right now for end users, IMHO, too many ASICs entering the market altogether and priced like there is no competition while their makers set up private pools which "steal" our earnings. BTW, 100 or 200 THs mine and GHash.io are in direct competition with us end-miners and are already one third of the entire bitcoin network.  spiccioli

I was gambling on a delivery before the end of August since I recognized this was a quality team, but the Hcard fkup hurt big time...then the several days delay around labor day in the US hurt some more. Mining really is about days and weeks right now.

I just posted dropbox links to the V1 & V2 rPi images and chainminer code if you guys need to remake your SD Cards. Please be sure to use the correct image - especially make sure not to use the V2 image or chainminer code on a V1 board!
Check the OP for the support thread I posted (see my sig for link).
The M-boards we shipped out today are all V2, so remember that these boards use 4 distinct SPI channels. If you have 4 hashing cards, you can load them in the slot 1 of each bank for best results.
Also be sure to use two separate PCI-e cables from your PSU to the plugs on the M-board. Using one cable that has two plugs will just put extra load on that cable, possibly dangerous as you increase H-cards.
Tracking numbers should have come to you via email (when FedEx label was printed). If not, I'll check with the shipping team to see whats up.
