I wonder if the Jalepeno will have two chips in it now...

This is only the first performance downgrade.  There are more to come.

Avalon's round 3 pricing will look like a bargain soon.

I LOVE how the "MiniRig" is "Out of Stock".   More like so far out of spec it would have to defy physics to hold that much Heat in such a confined space.....

Yes, I regret not dumping 200 BTC into a Single 10 months ago. That 200 BTC is now worth $28,000. I am so sad!

This the earliest orders will never (not in 10 years) recover the cost of capital.  I am surprised they didn't raise prices earlier.  

Regardless mining is already high enough risk.  Makes more sense to wait until products are actually being shipped in timely manner so you can evaluate

That being said I may still buy a Single.  I don't need to make a bazzillion % profit.  If I can mine at cost, then I can use the Single as a Electricity to BTC converter, and help improve network security at the same time (by using p2pool).  A win, win in my opinion.   It all depends on your objectives.

Of course there is no reason to place an order today:

All sales are final.
You get higher price, longest delivery time, lowest return, and the most risk (no way out if things go south).    I will wait until the backlog is gone and buy a Single then.  Like I said it all depends on your objectives.

I bet you people waiting to order for BFL to ship regret that now.

Okay, now you're reminding me about how foolish I've been.

I like how their shitty names have gone and they're selling by hash rate now, because they know they'll have to ship twice as many. Oh and power requirements have gone.

I'll stick with my Avalons and GPUs thanks. I prefer things that you know, exist, but I think its just me.

It looks like they have given up on minirigs too.

You realize this is just to try and stop the early preorder customers from asking for refunds, right?

I bet you people waiting for BFL to ship before you order regret that now.

Actually, no.

Regret what?  That you missed 20x+ jump in bitcoin price because your coins were tied up with the preorder?  Nah...
