Will see if we can get an update for everyone soon.

That would be awesome Matt, thanks.

Any info you can supply about what the final configuration may look like for the X-3 would be appreciated. E.g., I believe it's going to be 2 modules, 3U height each (exact numbers seem to be 450mm x 180mm x 133mm). Hoping they can be mounted back to back in a rack...

Does each X-3 have a shared PSU/Controller or does each module have one, so each X-3 will have 2 total PSUs? Will each module have its own ethernet port, etc.

If each module is independent, that almost sounds like an X-2 product... the missing link.

Thanks!

I've finally ordered myself an X-1 from Minersource on the 26th December and paid via wire transfer on the 27th December. The money has left my account and bank has told me it should be with minersource now. I have pm'd bob and hope my status changes from balance due to complete very soon as I want to be in the first batch. Anyone else know how long it takes for payment confirmation to occur, I am from UK if it helps.

It could take several days depending on whether or not all info on wire is correct,Bobsag3 workload,holidays...ect  You will be in the Mar/10 delivery time frame. There is only 1 "batch" of Minion asics at this time, just different delivery dates depending on when orders are placed. earlier orders being Feb/24 shipping,orders after Dec/12 are Mar/10 shipping date. 

Thanks for the info. I am very excited and cant wait. Wish I ordered sooner now, big difference in delivery. Only have myself to blame, if theres any way to get bumped up the list, let me know Cheesy

fyi a ba reseller is coming to town, well, Fareham. https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4205864

I dont know if I should be happy or not about this. I waited as long as I could before buying but went with minersource. What to do now?

Yes, exactly right. I have two open orders with Minersource, one on the previous platform, one on the current one. You can get to the old platform here.

Interesting, I went to the store site and attempted to log in. It says i don't have an account although i have invoice in my e-mail dated 24/09/2013. I guess i'll just have to wait and see what happens. This is probably due to the website changing since the early orders.

It's only a week so longer to wait,BUT,remember & I'm being as honest as abe here,be ready for MAYBE a month delay.Be sure to add that delay to your calculations,just in case they are late,I have.

All Asic's have been late in one way shape or form,except maybe ASICminer,Even KNC was delayed by a week or two.No one so far has been anywhere near the BFL 7-8 month delay though,except BFL..Thank GOD!!  Cheesy

Here's hoping to no delay,but just be ready for it to save yourself a lot heartache  Cool

That depends on the difficulty and value of bitcoin. Have a look in the marketplace and see what things are selling for at the current profitability. From there you have to crunch some numbers and give it your best guesstimate. There is no fool-proof method. If there was we would all be rich.

If the x-3 does arrive late february/early march how many bitcoins or $ do you think it would be worth if I sold it directly?

It means that they can give you more hashing power to compensate for the price difference.

Must be hosted hashing power? They're not going to start custom making machines due to pricing changes
