Topic: Are ASIC's shipping? (Read 431 times)
Time to start looking for some refurb video cards, or maybe think about litecoin until you can get a ASIC.
Good point, i'll have to find a better option for now or stay at 22MH/s

it almost seems that they are a few weeks from being shippable.
They've been a few weeks from shipping since October 2012!
The video shows they don't even have an ASIC capable of mining yet.
They're talking about maybe shipping 30Gh/s Little Single units running at 2-3x power design.
Every other product will be so far outside it's power spec it'll need a complete redesign!
The mini Rig would blow the fuses on your house power box,
there's no way the Jalapeño will run on a USB power brick,
the 60Gh/s Single will be so hot with 8 chips close together that it'll melt itself.
Interesting, from the first post it almost seems that they are a few weeks from being shippable. But if not, what would be my best option right now to increase my hash rate?
Butterfly labs has big problems

It looks a loooong way from being a shippable product.
Avalon are shipping but are asking crazy money 88 to 101 BTC, and they only take payment in BTC!

All my computers have bad mhash/s rates, so I was thinking about getting an asic miner. But I was wondering if they're shipping yet or still in pre order stages. Has anyone got one? I thinking of ordering the one below.
