Any link to the time of second batch order start?

Looks like I have a little more reading to do but that summed it up nicely thank you gentlemen. 8hrs. Short notice indeed.

I've been so out of the loop on Bitcoin I almost feel ashamed. Can someone please bring me up to speed on this within a few sentences? Also how much does it cost and where can I get one 
Orders will open in just over 8 hours. There will be 600 units available in batch 2.

Simple version:
It murders GPU miners in their sleep.
You can't buy one today. Batch 1 already sold out.
Batch 2 will pre-order "soon" (tomorrow?). $1499 for 66GH/s (68GH/s observed in testing). Payment in BTC only. No cancellations. Expected shipping in March.

Orders start in a day. $1500 will get you 66gh/s+. You should receive it in March. Google "Avalon Asics".

Congrats Avalon! I had my doubts but looks like they are pulling it off.
Possibly bad news for anyone who was backing another company and hoping to recoup their purchase costs quickly though. Only the lucky first wave of Avalon clients will manage that, lucky guys.

well did you get a tracking number? what about the customs?

I was a pessimist, did not think that any one could deliver and for that i crown myself as a duchebag.
Don't worry your ignorance and inability to accept corrections already did that for you in your other thread. To avoid any revisioning of history you weren't a pessimist you flat out claims it was IMPOSSIBLE to produce this product. Not that Avalon was a scam but that it simply couldn't be done. Of course as pointed out even IF Avalon was a scam your reasoning was still idiotic.
For existing FPGA design the best can be had is 23MHps/J. There is no reason to anticipate an improvement in FPGA power efficiency, yes, there can be marginal reduction of overhead and the FPGA can be scaled up, but it's efficiency will not increase all that much. Based on existing designs we can anticipate 25MH/J for FPGA. There is nothing special abut ASIC, most ASIC vendors just use a custom programmed FPGA; this is called FPGA to ASIC conversion. So at best ASIC will be 50MHps/J; and i am being VERY generous here.

You could 51% a small chain with a few of these.
Only clones of bitcoin not a different algorythm like litecoin.

its a sad sad day for GPU miners aswell as FPGA miners

Please post a link to the pool where you're mining so we can all stand in awe

Why,only 2 are out,so they won't make the diff go up at all or very very little.Be mad when 300 of these are mining 
Well, there's over 50 en route, so we should see those coming online in the next days.
