Flashed one cool one of mine and it is now 857 up from 816. Temps still around 56 degrees. 
Very nice work BFL.
Very nice work BFL.Flashed one of mine and also getting 857, but my temps are 49C.

Well - looks like the command to upload the bitstream is 'ZAX' ... however more information is highly likely required to do the upload 
Nice to see you guys offering more speed to existing customers. Any chance you guys would open up your development to the community? This might yield additional speed increases and increase the value of the product you are selling.
Their speed changes are just adjusting the clock, not the actual sha256 'code'.Anyone got the tools to generate the source code from the EasyMiner executable and post a link here?
It's .NET v2.0.50727 (and VB in there)
I notice in the binary it detects throttling and was mainly wondering if that was done via simply noticing it's slow to process the nonce range or if there is some way to directly detect the clock/throttle.
No doubt there would be more commands to the BFL than the current VERY SHORT list of: ZGX, ZDX, ZLX and ZFX
I gathered that, but it is worth asking if they'd open source their bitstream so the community could potentially spur their project along. I imagine if they are using Spartan6 cores for the Mini Rig they'll be using or at least starting with the open source Spartan6 bitstreams..
I said if, not it is. No need to get uppity.
Could be that the Stratix III was just a prototype for a Hardcopy sASIC, and they decided that they could sell some EOL chips while building a "new" chip on a dead process. Hmm. I wonder if the Mini-rig is fully reprogrammable in the same manner as the single...

Hey, it could still be Spartan 6, but they ran a simulation that said they could get 700 MH/s out of each chip.
But, they didn't believe the power numbers from the simulation (once bitten, twice shy), so they took the power/performance numbers that people get for the Spartan 6 at 200 MH/s. 
In all seriousness, it seems most likely to me that they found a source for another chip like this one (read: used), but 45 nm technology, and they predict they will get those performance specs. At least now the power numbers are more reasonable. It's just the price that doesn't make sense otherwise.
You're right, though, I wouldn't speculate that BFL will suddenly go open source with the release of the mini rig, since it's definitely not a Spartan 6.

Hm, I guess pool mining is still disabled in this version.
you mean p2pool probably !

Flashed one cool one of mine and it is now 857 up from 816. Temps still around 56 degrees. Very nice work BFL.
Very nice work BFL.Works out at about $40 per year more, so if you have 10 Singles than a nice $400.

Very nice work BFL. 
Along with the beta release of our maintenance and diagnostics tool (EasyMiner), we're making an experimental firmware available for running your Singles at a faster than stock 864 mh/s.

I think you mean faster than stock 832 Mh/s
No, the BFL spokesperson said it correctly, if a little bit confusingly - I'm adding parentheses for clarity:
we're making an experimental firmware available for running your Singles at a (faster than stock) 864 mh/s

Nice release. Any chance for future Mac support?
Does this experimental firmware void or otherwise affect warranty support?
Warranty support covers use of any available firmware.
