A link to an article.

It looks like more hash is on the way...

Quote
The hashing power gains are significant: Alpha had originally promised 5 MH/s and 25 MH/s units, but earlier this year it revised those figures to 16 MH/s and 90 MH/s respectively. Now it is promising to deliver 50 MH/s and 250 MH/s – 10 times the original rates.

Quote
Thanks to the back-to-basics approach and lower margins, Alpha says that despite the extra power, it will not change the price, with the Viper staying at $2,200 and $9,000 for the 50 MH/s and 250 MH/s models respectively.

It sounds quite promising. I found specs on their web page :
