Probably I've overlooked the news about it, but I'm not able to understand whether the Avalon's first batch has been shipped or not.
What is the actual situation?

DUDE WHY U BOTHER WITH LATE COMERS LIKE AVALON ?

OR PRIMEASIC WITH LOCAL PICKUP IN STOCK?

WHEN BFL SHIPPED OCTOBER 2012?

Ask Jeff how much BTC he mined so far with his fake machine

If it is fake, why bother? Id rather know how I can get paid to help promote a pre-order scam.

Then there's the Chinese guy who blogged about it - what was his nickname again?

You mean this one? http://bbs.btcman.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1304

or does this overlap with libertybuck?

I can not access that link, what happened?

Dead link.

Apparently the newbie posting requirements aren't strict enough. Do yourself a favor and read up on the Bitcoin developers and founders before you go spotting your mouth off Roll Eyes

No, libertybuck only announced his a couple of days ago. I seem to remember that guy had an account here.

It appears more are coming. This guy has 4 now. Bastard....

libertybuck has at least 5. He has confirmed to have 2 before those 3 arrived. I think he ordered 10 units.
maomao is supposed to have one, express shipped at the same time as jgarzik's unit.
Bitcoin Foundation has one, hand-delivered by Yifu.

I still see zero non-Chinese evidence.
Yes I have googled, I have searched, and the "evidence" I see thus far is easily faked, or reeks of being fake.
I want to believe everyone accepting "pre-order" non-refundable, untraceable payments is honest. (But then I laugh)

How do you see the growth? I remember it was 31 Thash/s ca the day of halving and it's still the same. Am I missing something?

Hum, no. The 7-day average before the halving was 27 Thash/s, but now we are at 35 Thash/s. See: http://bitcoin.sipa.be/speed-lin.png

This guy named Jeff was the first person to get one:

http://garzikrants.blogspot.se/

He posted a few posts about it but hasn't said anything since February 1.

He is probably to busy spending and investing the hoards of BTCs his is making right now

Another question: if they are shipped why we are not seeing any significant growth of the computation power?

We have seen a growth, but not all units have arrived yet, so we should see a big spike in a week or so.

How do you see the growth? I remember it was 31 Thash/s ca the day of halving and it's still the same. Am I missing something?

Yes, you're missing variance. The network hashrate fluctuates constantly, but it has been growing steadily, in part due to Avalon users receiving units.

As mentioned there are several threads around here that contain posts by people that claim to have received Avalon units, most are in China.
