I dunno, i ordered an x-1 waaaay back in sept when the price was damn nice on these things for a feb delivery. Now with the announcement of the s2 coming out, it seems like these are going to be pretty useless when they finally launch. Not a significant power savings or anything. This technology is going to be dated before it even hits our hands.
I was really hoping this wasn't going to be an issue as it seems like a fucking headache to figure out but "Black Arrow Ltd are actively monitoring the market to remain competitive and are seeking to become a major player in this field. They are currently offering an attractive offer: customers placing orders now will be protected against any price decrease prior delivery on the original price tag by being offered a proportional increase in hashing power at no extra charge. The sales model on the new line is attractive to their first customers who are guaranteed to receive a much improved deal."
I think by the time these hit they are going to wind up having to sell them cheaper than they were originally selling them for with the discount and such.
1 th for 3600 bucks april 10th from a company with an actual track record of delivering goods.
The heat is on, someone is going to get burned.

bobsag3 would you mind answering a few question's ? You have been to London and have met with Blackarrow........
Yes he has gone there and will again when the units are ready to ship,he took photos of what he could at the time, go back to around page 40 of the topic and work your up you will find the discussion at the time.ecointalk has lots of photos in the gallery and is bit easier to read through. Don't worry about all negative shit you see posted here by the 4-5 trolls,they get their jollies by highjacking forum topics with one hand,tug'n their funny bone with the other.One in particular would likely abuse himself to death he erver lost is internet for more than an hour.
Any update on cash refunds, BA? My support ticket has gone unanswered for over a week now.. 
from the last BA progress update:
8.Customer support:
a.We are still lagging behind and have a queue of 700 tickets. We are deeply sorry for the inconvenience please bear with us until we get this sorted. Our most experienced agent (Julia) is in maternal leave, the next experienced one (Alexey) is working on the case half time and the 3rd one (Sylvia) is in training. We have one other agent (Matt) working part time, remotely, but his limited time does not allow him to make much progress.
b.Customers must understand that our headquarters from China do not have access to Facebook. This account is maintained from abroad and they are unable to access any customer support issues.
c.Few customers have requested refunds. Please rest assured that we will refund the USD in May and we are trying to refund BTCs sooner but we are waiting for a legal document which was not returned yet. Please note that customers opening more tickets will just get you back to the end of the queue as we reply the tickets in the reverse order of activity.
My sister addresses 300-400 emails a day from truckers, not an easy crowd to address. Also, during her 8 hour shift, she books hotel rooms and places calls to convenience stores making them aware of What Nut (inside joke--see AMT if curious). Her initial training period was 3 days after leaving the warehouse floor. She has no formal education to perform said tasks.
These assholes are lying!
Are the emails in Chinese?
bobsag3 would you mind answering a few question's ? You have been to London and have met with Blackarrow
would you mind sharing with us your thought's on what type of person he is,Did he come across as genuine to you ?
did it sound like he had good intention's,Did he seem motivated to get thing's done.Can you please give us a picture
of who we are dealing with hear.Your PR/CS is Diabolical people very much need reassuring regularly that there investment is safe
and that there miner's are in the pipeline. There seems to be a lot of Doom and Gloom post's on hear and me personally i don't
want to read/hear that i have been conned weather it is true or not it is not good new's and i would rather not read it.
people have and can make up there own mind's about what is going on.I myself have a bit more faith and do believe BA will deliver
eventually but it is when is what i am most concerned about.By this stage i would have expected and update saying we are waiting on the arrival of the chip's everything else is more or less in place and we are looking forward to shipping your unit's as soon as they are assembled. My view/Neutral stance

As much as I am sceptical to the whole BA debacle, my refund request from Minersource went through ok and without much hassle. So kudos to Minersource for that at least!

So, if i ordered prospero x-3. As i know there will be 2 boxes. 2 devices x 1TH. So if PSU is integrated, that means its already inside the device? But what about ethernet cables, are they included in our package or we have to get them by ourselves? And as I understand we will need 2x ethernet cable as there will be 2 devices?
you are worrying about an RJ45 (ehternet) cable? are you serious? you can get those anywhere... i would rather worry about getting the ASIC itself.

The prototypes really give an appreciation of the magnitude of what you are trying to achieve. I really hope there remains a viable business model for all your efforts. The work to build an end to end system from scratch is truly noteworthy.
yes, they have been playing with 3d printing for their cases since late last year... my experience from printing 3d isn't that good, I have found it to be more of a "dollar store" cheap and breakable type plastic... (yet very light).
Has anyone played with 3d printers and different "printer resin" and quality?

Those are obviously very elaborate and sophisticated renders!

The pink case does look like a 3D print.

In case anyone here didn't see the pictures posted earlier:

Does the X-1 come plug and play ready to mine, or do we need to buy anything additional? https://ecointalk.net/gallery/album/13-x1-power-supply/
EDIT:
Awesome. thanks man!
You have to setup a pool from wich you want to mine..
I figured that much. i was just concerned with having to by additional things to even get started. I am new to the asic world and as I was looking I noticed some didnt come with PSU and others you needed some extra random part like that one miner needed a PSU jumper. If I am going to drop the money I want it to be ready to roll.
Do you mean you have to have a local stratum set up like the block erupter cube or just point it to the pool u want to mine?
These will come with PSU's built in, but you will need to plug them into your network somehow. Depending on how many you order you may need a switch (if there are too many or you already have stuff plugged into your router's extra ports). You will also need 1 ethernet cable for each one.
Understood, thank you all for the info. Once some of my alts pump I will likely order a few. I am only a little hesitant about what KnC is going to announce along with ASICMiner. But I am sure they will not be as cost effective for us little guys like Black Arrow.

God knows we won't ever ROI with these things, but dagnamit are they sexy! 
ups no render here
wait! another one
game over trolls
