Google brings up loads of images of the same orange cartoon cat. Is this where FC got his name from?

i chime in, is this the original friedcat?
would be really helpful to know...

You're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. No wonder FriedCat doesn't post here. One minute ASICMiner is amazing and the next, roadkill. Pathetic children.

There will always be badmouthers on the public Internet forums. Doesn't mean it should scare FC away from his investors.

pardon my ignorance, but, what is a "GB thread?" I cant find what it means anywhere and google gives me nothing relevant.

GB = Group buys

I wonder why the BitCanary guy isn't selling any.

Checkout his GB threads. SSB (another reseller for US) is awaiting shipment for more cubes (also on his GB thread)

Doesn't it say something about a company when their products sell out in 24 hours and their only 'advertising' is word-of-mouth?

No, it says that they dont produce enaugh..

Conceptually you are right if everyone had access to perfect information.. you have to assume they are producing as much as possible without taking on too much risk. This is where your trust of Friedcat's competency comes into play. If AM had produced TOO MANY units, we would now have less capital to invest into Gen 2/3.

So far Friedcat has kept his new product secret. Are ASICMINER going to be advertising their new product anywhere? So far their marketing methods (or lack of) are feeble and lacklustre.

Communication to both shareholders, and customers, is also very poor.

Maybe feeble and lackluster, but it isn't necessary to do more. Almost everything they have ever put up for sale has been out of stock in less than 24 hours (other than some of the final runs of usb's). Spending a bunch on advertising would be wasteful. It looks like the cubes are already out of stock..

There's 10 "last" USBs in stock at .15 btc for collectors and that inventory is left for the www.bitCanary.com sales. There's no inventory otherwise. The USBs have sold out completely everywhere. You can also find them on eBay I think.

Blades are available. Everyone is awaiting on the Cube product which is pretty similar to 3 blades, roughly speaking... Cube should be more "consumer" friendly.

what "others"? who can you order from and immediately get product shipped to you? (other than 100gh/s avalons for 5.5btc)

I know, but just another thing the detractors keep forgetting. ASICMINER should be able to get even higher prices as they are close to the only ones delivering within days, reducing network risk by a huge margin. So why aren't they getting close to marginal pricing instead of giving them away for "cheap"?

Them already being out of stock just goes to prove wrong all the people in this thread who continue arguing that ASICMINER is too expensive compared to the others

6.Advertising Update
During the next wave of hardware sales, we will increase our advertising efforts.
