same power tip from what i read.

my question is will there be a blade with these say 300-400gh?

i grabbed hundreds of am sticks from you last year. a few am blades.

  I am looking for s-1 replacements  so a 300 to 400gh blade would be nice.

RockMiner will be coming out with a blade-like product soon.  Hopefully by end of June, but I don't have official time frames and you shouldn't take my word as such.
The R-BOX product should not be compared to blade systems etc...
this is a consumer product.  introduce someone to Bitcoin/mining, gift it etc... etc...

Yes, there will be a bigger miner "X-box" :

It is not strictly speaking a blade, this is dedicated for home miner like RBox. Unlike a blade this is not really fitted to have a lot and stack them, it is more a plug and play miner.

It is in design stage, it could be ready in a month if everything is OK.
specification expected (very speculative, not official)
300 - 400 GH/s
350 - 450 W @wall
400 - 600 USD

We will have more precise figures in the future. For now, this is a rough idea of the system and like CanaryInTheMine said, don't use my word.

Some news about X-Box:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdk2dmNcyPI

Vidz shows 4x3x4 = 48 chips AM3 per miner so approx 400GH/s. Then miner screen shows 750GH/s for 2 miners, gives apprx 375GH/s , but some chips are missing on one board.
This would indicate around 400GH/s per X-Box. Power drawn should be around 460W at wall.

They're not as silent as R-box, but they're more powerful  

The last unknown is the price. For now, I have the feeling, about the timeline, it would be ready soon (2 or 3 weeks).

I think 400MH/s is a little low, perhaps 489GH - 510GH

Even in my highest assesments for XBox, HR is never upper than 430-450 GH/s. Also the power cons would be around 550-600 W in this area and above.
These are just assesments and my humble guess, will see what would be the official figures, and the final home using. Hope I'm wrong and HR will be very high, as price and power much lower

Thanks for the info. I'm hoping for slightly better w/ghs that above. the Xbox should be able to be more efficient than the rbox given better otherparts to asic chips ratio. Price will be everything. Hopefully ~400 USD.

Keeping shipping times in mind, one should at least adjust for the difficulty change that is expected in ~2 days.  That's what is going to influence the ROI in Bitcoin, mostly.  If you're calculating for ROI in fiat, then it's time to break out some tea leaves and gamble whether the current upward trend continues or at least holds steady.

YEAH it is good to see you back.  I may do a bigger order of these in a week or I may wait for the x-box.
