Update
The wafer of the first half (100TH/s) of next batch is to be out of fab.
More than 4,000 USB devices are sold out in total.
The demand of blades are surprisingly long-lasting and still high.
With respect to the mining business, we have never seen it as a drying up one
in spite of persistent block halving. If Bitcoin ever rises as a successful currency
in a few years, and the transaction fee has to be, say, 15BTC each block on average,
to prevent attacks from organizations that are all over the world and begin show
up when Bitcoin flourishes, what we could expect is 27.5BTC per block after the
next block halving, and more than 15BTC forever in the further future.
The shares "missing" are those missing from the original GLBSE database when we got
them. Some people had failed to report their Bitcoin address. Among them, several ones
successfully redeemed their shares after we mailed them for the address info. But the
rest failed to mail back.
The delay of confirmation of this week's dividends is caused by the payments of real
dividends are chained after the satoshi transactions, which are now refused by most
of the clients. We will either stop the satoshi payments, or unchain the payment in our
modified scripts.

MY concern is over the usb sticks if 4000 have been sold for 8000 btc do we have 6000 left to sell? What will we try to move them at 2btc A STICK.? MY next concern is how many blade have been sold? How many are left to sell and will we still try to sell them at 30 BTC a blade. Seems to me all the sales will drop a lot and dividends will be greatly reduced very soon as BFL will have all jalapenos delivered and up to real time in 90 days. see links

IF true a BFL 5gh sold for 2.5btc that will end AM income from sales. This means AM will need more hash and less sales or far lower prices to sell enough To keep current dividends high.
Or we can all hope BFL will stop shipping the jalapenos at a fast rate.
These Jalapenos were ordered nearly a year ago. If you order now you can't get one of them as fast as an ASICMINER device. It will take months instead of days. Which is why AM will be able to sell their devices at a premium. One bird in the hand is better than 10 in the bush.
