It will be interesting to see how it performs with the power limitations of USB. Worth a keeping an eye out for any similar implementations at a more reaslistic price if it proves successful. I'd consider a more realistic price to be in the region of €100 (looking at techno's costs for singles).
When overclocked, it uses more than 500 mA, so it can't be powered from a standard USB 2.0 connector. You need USB 3.0, or special hub with external power.

It can be underclocked, though, and I've seen mine do about 4GH/sec on a 500 mA budget.

I think it is the Bi-Fury from Poland. They have listed this for sale on this forum if you do a search. I think it is cheaper than eBay.

Yes. Very interesting Project.

But € 178 is to much! Plus the UPS cost ?! I'm from Europe. But still ... we probably talk about another € 20 - € 30.
And maybe some € for custom fee.
Yep they need to adjust the price to the current difficulty and Bitcoin exchange.

It's not based on Red/Blue fury, but an independently designed product. It's faster because it uses 2 ASICs.

As far as I can read from the text (it's polish) it costs 178 €.
