I have been reading the forums for a few months and would like to get into the ASIC game, what are my options?

I see the usb asic's are pretty cheap for < $100 shipped today, in your hands within 3-5 days, other than that asics really do not exist yet and GPU's are a waste of time and money.

So really, is there anything worth buying today or should I just wait until these asic companies are actually shipping?

The asciminer usb erupters are overpriced.
Consider ordering from kncminer or bitfury either directly or through a group buy on this forum.
Less risky: just buy and hold bitcoin and/or bitcoin stock (e.g. Asicminer).

Atm I would keep my eye on bitfury-based products and any new more efficient chips by other players.

Bitcoin trinkets now on my online store: btc trinkets.com <- Bitcoin Tiepins, cufflinks, lapel pins, keychains, card holders and challenge coins.

Buy GPUs and mine alts. At least GPUs have resellability and can be used for other things, unlike ASICS.
