bobsag3 what are you going to do for your customers BA are leaving you holding a very big bag which is very fucking empty mate. This is now the time to help us and not attack us.

Yes but have they announced how they are going to compensate us now.

I agree...couple months ago they could not give us more than 3TH because they would bankrupt but now they convince us they will provide proper compensation(in comparison with the competition)...HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE???THEY ARE MINING AND SCREWING WITH US!!!EVERY WEEK MORE AND MORE IDIOTIC UPDATE PROVES IT..

minersource are not supplying any x1's they had the shipment held to be full spec x1's now they don't have a fucking lcd say enough doesn't it.

The ones they have shipped is with a interim solution using Raspberry Pi's

I thought BA was already shipping out X-1s?

With this update, they've officially gone "full heel" as they say in professional wrestling.

Black Arrow Labs...confidence tricks like you read and hear about.

Bobsag, how will this affect MinerSource and their ability to supply the X1's? Are you taking a shipment sans LCDs to ship out or waiting for them to come in? I understand this news has only just come to hand but would like to hear from you

Incredible...

Where is this update from

The news update makes me not   happy. 

they make such a good asic chip and fails in everything else

When it rains... it pours

I'm still not sure how now, after all this time, we STILL, have no LCD's. News of this X2 makes me hope they're being built for some sort of compensation package

1.We have found the issue that was preventing our control board from working with our ASICs.
2.We have started manufacturing the X1 with our control boards.
3.The LCD + Touch sample was supposed to be delivered today but was postponed until next Wednesday. This is the 5th factory of LCD that fails us. We are planning to ship X1s without LCD if the customers approves. We will contact each customer individually for approval before shipment.
4.We have received and tested successfully a board to connect a single X3 Hashboard to RPI. This solution was planned to be used as a testbench in order to find a solution to get multiple X3 hashboards working together and just now we’ve been able to start 2 boards at 400Ghash using the same RPI. We are still testing to see if the solution is stable and we are planning to start using this temporary solution for Rent-A-Minion programme.
5.We’ve been working daily with the 1st design company and we have been reviewing and optimizing the new design for X3 (5 hash boards, 10 chips). We are going to tape out the sample board this week or next Monday. Development of this board took longer than we had hoped as we kept modifying it based on the findings from testing. We now know that if we would have taped out this board as planned it would have failed.
6.The 2nd design company has hoped to finish the design of the Hashboard last Monday but has not finished it yet.
7.The 3rd design company did not promised us a date so far but yesterday we’ve received an almost completed design of the new Hashboard.
8.The 4th company made no progress on the design as they are still trying to find the issue with the current solution.
9.We have started developing X2 @ 240Ghash using the X3 boards as we have the boards already manufactured.
10.We are actively looking to hire more PCB designers. All interested candidates are invited to send their CV to hr at blackarrowsoftware.com

Give us a look at your circuit diagrams if you're not up to this..  

What are the data rates going over the SPI bus?

Is there a web interface and does the unit initialise using DHCP? 

seems no update for X3 and refunds still....
@David,why ban me still on ecoin with a new account haha123 and delete all my post?just because I said I am tracyhh?

Good for you!! Let us know what the wattage draw is too 

Thanks to david and zurg, I now have a working miner!

Will do some testing/benchmarking and report back

I lol'd

Here is the newest update from bfl josh:

At least BA hit advertised specs..

one month.. until end of WC
