Production is underway on our initial run of pre-order units. As a member of this program, we invite you to review the photos below. Professional photographs are scheduled for early next week, but in the meantime these candid shots should answer most of your questions about the size and shape of the final delivered BitForce SHA256 Single.
Release schedule: We’re currently working on final MCU firmware and software device drivers. It is our expectation this will complete within a two week time frame. Note: Members of our packet verification product program will receive a different firmware package and your deliveries will be staged based on final firmware for your application.
The above photos WEREN'T taken on the same day, time of time, or even at the same location, i.e., BFL's office(?) supposedly located at 25 E 12th St, Kansas City.Time of day: Notice the shadows caused by the miner and cup.
Same day: Via deduction due to the following revelation.
Same location: Location IS in the same building, but on different floors in different offices(?), hence partly the deduction mentioned above, for BFL could've easily took two subsequent photos depicting the mining with and sans the covering as the description below the images relays per on the link provided at the top of this post and as follows:

Further, notice the windows of the building across the street from the office(?) window the two images were taken. For all practical purposes, the images were taken from basically the same line of view. But, the windows seen across the street are 100% different windows than the windows depicted in both photos. Yes, they're of the same building across the street, but of different floors.
Proof, you ask? (like I wasn't ready for that question
)

The building on the left has overall the address 25 E 12th St. in Kansas City. Notice the Zaina restaurant on the first floor were Josh Zerlan supposedly enjoyed many a Mediterranean meals, topped off with baklava I may add. The building on the far right is supposedly where Josh was employed, penning posts related to BFL at his desk on somebody else's time clock.
It's the building on the left that Sonny Vleisides took the two photos within two different offices(?) on two different floors at two different times. The next photo, also cropped from Google, depicts the building across the street, the street being Walnut Street at the corner of 12th Street in Kansas City.

Notice the shape and sizes of the windows on the building located at 1201 Walnut, Kansas City. After the forth (perhaps it's the fifth or sixth) floor all the windows line up, whereas below said threshold, the windows are of different configurations.
Now, look at the two images at the top of this post again. What do you see? I see in the left image the transition between the two floors of the 1201 Walnut building, but the image on the right clearly shows the windows of the floors lining up. The two photos taken would be impossible if they were indeed taken from the same window, at basically the same time of day, and from the same line of view no matter how the camera was held.
That said, the following is a complete stretch, probably bearing no relevance.
The building across the street has the address 1201 Walnut. By extension, the building from whence the images where taken would have the address 1202 Walnut.

I warned you it was funny!
To recap, the images were taken from two different offices(?) on two different floors in a building having the address 25 E 12th St. in KC. But, did BFL ever have an office at that location, let alone two offices on two floors? I'm leaning toward that someway, somehow BFL was able to use said address due to some connection(s) and via that connection(s) was able to gain asses to the building so that photos could be taken. Again, we're 100% talkin' 'bout two different floors where BFL supposedly maintain their office(s).
