March 10th 2014 is a new batch 1 date or its batch 2?

Just to clarify. Is round 1 batch 1 still projected for February 24, 2014 shipping?

Absolutely.

I'm sorry but I'm a little bit confused to be honest.

So at this point in time, the official shipping date still remains at February 24, 2014. However, we should expect for the product to no sooner than March 10, 2014. Am I reading this right?

Batch 1 is still being filled. Those who ordered when the date said Feb 24th 2014 will have their orders shipped starting on Feb 24th 2014. Those who order when the date says March 10th 2014 will have their orders shipped starting March 10th 2014.

Ugh Sorry Matt than you should be calling this Batch 2, having two different ship date's on Batch 1 is a huge difference.
Not getting my miner shipped until march 10th and your charging the SAME for the product?
That cut's thousands off potential profit.
Especially after flooding the market with batch one?

it's still the first batch of chips. It's 2 weeks difference.

Matt, I created my order 5 days ago when it was still saying Feb 24 shipping. I have been unable to transfer using BTC so will now do a wire transfer. If you receive my bank wire in the coming week can you confirm that my Prospero X3 will be available on February 24? BTW I also included hosting so I would expect the unit to start hashing on Feb 24 or 25 at the latest.

Also, how confident are you that the Prospero X3 Batch 1 will indeed hit the Feb 24 target date, given that there is no news on the ASIC tapeout as yet. With two months left, and the Spring Festival holiday in China that leaves barely 7 weeks for tapeout, server prototyping, and testing.

I appreciate your response

Regards,
Uzair

Sorry for the confusion. If you order today, your prospero will be shipped after March 10th 2014. This is to set better expectations of how long it'll take to ship.

The heatsyncs are for the X-3 only. The X-1 will have a different heatsync.

Does anyone have any information or know what should we expect from US customs when ordering from BA?

Did i read this correctly on the website, If i place an order today it will take almost a year (10/3/2014) to receive a working product? If that is the case, that would be one hell of a scary purchase. i dont even want to begin to do the math on what the difficulty will be a year from now. 100 GH/s will be the equivalent of a 333MH/s usb today by that time. Can someone confirm that is in fact the case, the 10/3/14 availability date as listed here ( http://www.blackarrowsoftware.com/store/prospero-x-1.html )

It's 10th of March, 2014.

quoted for truth. By October 2014, we're hoping to be done with batch 1

All irrelevant now anyways, just realized that BA is holding on a 10 unit minimum order, AND now confirming that expected delivery is almost a year away (October 2014) as quoted. Chance of ROI EVER is now .00000000000000000000001 %. I do give you an A+ for efforts in design and manufacture, but a 10 unit min. order and an almost year wait time, there are about 15 companies out there with better products and much sooner delivery.

Makes much more sense now. will be ordering one in the next few minutes.

No. March 10 is the confirmed date. He was just saying that by October they hope to be done with batch 1. 10 unit min order can be avoided by using the reseller minersource.net

We have just received new heatsink samples. These are fixing several issues from the first version. They now fit in a U3 case and are a little bit longer. We have also have a custom mounting base that will allow us to put 10 minions in a 360mm line.

When can we see an x-1 or x-3 prototype?
