always good to see more announcements like this

I will put up an article about this on our website, www.cryptonerd.co, tomorrow

If there any bits of information you definitely want me to mention, feel free to send a PM

are there any demo events scheduled, where we could see the device in action?

[claycoins]

What type of cooling are you using, having a reasonably quiet rig would be an advantage to me over noisy gpu fans.

How about no.

I believe that was BFL-Scrypt

If i can't get 10MH/s under 1000$ this is useless 

you sure that will be enough for this to work ? not sure you will see a profit

I'm genuinely curious...wtf is the point of reserving a post in a thread?

interesting...any more hardward info to be provide?

Need more details to make an informed opinion. I wish you luck.

Alpha-T,

You say in the last update that the price per kilohash will be around that of the 7950. Could you give me the number you are thinking of?

My maths:
A HD 7950 gets about 650khash and cost about $250 USD. So 250/650 = 0.384$/khash?

5000kHash  ~ $1900
10000khash ~ $3800

Using dustcoin.com's calculator it says at 5000khash and 200watts you'd make about $300 a month. At $1900 that would take 6 months to pay off. This doesn't take into account the rise in from the new hardware, but also not a rise in price/ltc.

Another calculator tells me at 5000khash (doesn't take into account power specs) I'd make about 143 LTC a month, at $2 per ltc thats about the same story as above.

I'll still buy one and hope the price goes up!

[Balthazar]

How about no.
*Scrypt-BFL has appeared* 

I believe that was BFL-Scrypt

BFL-Josh used SCAM, it's super effective!

Alpha-T,

It says the price per kilohash will be lower than 7950, not around.

Considering, unlike a videocard that can be always sold for a small discount, a specialized device like scrypt-miner is pretty useless for any other purpose, plus the general risk and instability of altcoins, I would imagine a "fair" price would be such that device ROIs in about 30 to 90 days.

Ok, lets re-math a little.

So lets say we can get 150LTC a month with the 5000khash machine (no difficulty increase). After 90 days (3 months) we'd have ~450LTC, at $2 per LTC, a better estimate might be

5000kHash  ~ $900
10000khash ~ $1800
