so not a single X3 has shipped out yet? And BA promised by end July 2014. 
X3's have shipped, there are photos and comments of them in the wild. Though it does not appear to be very many so far...

They appear to be running OpenSSH server, but I'm not able to login via SSH. The user:blackarrow login that works for the web UI does not work for ssh, nor does root:blackarrow.
You will find details of ssh, and other things here http://ecointalk.net/forum/78-support/
"There's a simple way of letting us know how our orders are proceeding. Seeing as the orders are being processed in the order in which they were paid for (and nobody's getting bumped up the queue) let us know, on a daily basis, which payment date you are now up to. Not approximate, give an exact date (working through orders paid for on 12th November 2013, 15th January 2014, etc.)
That, and ONLY that, will let us all know how close our own orders are to completion."
Funnily enough, no response, which tells me that orders are either being shipped out at random, to "preferred buyers" or not at all.

Still no response to this simple question. BLACKARROW, WHICH PAYMENT DATES ARE YOU NOW PROCESSING ORDERS FOR?
My guess is that they're too busy supplying 2014-paid distributor orders to deal with the Batch 1 orders.
Now, after communicating with XBtec, I am leaning towards BA again being the scum of the earth. But not the whole organization. It seems that a single or small group of people inside BA sold the list. What a fucked up mess this is, I don't think XBtec is BA rebranded, they have been incredibly nice to me and have put some of my fears to rest about them stealing the list (which I no longer believe they did). I would even be open to getting some of their products if they would ship to me first.
But, it worries me that a small group of BA employees are selling company info. This has apparently gone unnoticed since BA seems surprised by this (but I wouldn't doubt they are acting and lying to cover up what they did). Who else are they selling to, how much more information? Perhaps XBtec would be open to telling us if they offered to sell any other information besides email addresses about their customers?
It seems that BA cannot handle their own employees who are looking to make a quick buck on the side.

I don't think that BA employees make up more than 1-2 people besides the director in the whole company ... :-)
Lol, and one of those two is bob from MS
Well that at least gives me some info,I've been asking for day's now when they expect to ship more X-1s and got no responce.
is it too late to request a refund or switch to another product from minersource? The GH/$ difference seems is rather significant now with for prosperos x1 vs other manufacturers. I bought an extra psu that was offered as part of the compensation and had the impression at the time it would be in my hands by now, but still waiting. every week makes my order seem more and more worthless compared to other offerings. :\
i asked the same question and this is the email i received from MS."We are expecting to ship out your units in the next 48 hours. If you do not have a tracking number by Friday, we will consider your option. At this time we are not doing any additional refunds. I appreciate your patience and let me know if you have any other questions."
i was expecting the tracking number by friday and when asked about it was told this:
"I understand your frustration. The batch was held in transit and is expect to be delivered early next week. I again apologize for the inconvenience.
Thanks"
which would be this week 3-9 aug.
long story short. it looks like we are stuck with a non-existent product or at least an elusive, mythical product.
1st batch from BA ( single X1, so I'll get no little compensation ), paid in mid november. Waited quietly, tried to make some occasional advice some time ago.
Recived nothing, but the worst thing is that i'm going to enter in ultra-deep spam mode for first time in my life.
.....for me BA won against BFL for the longest delay.

My X3 has been running at 0h/s for over 5 months now, what am I doing wrong here?
Well they didn't lie that consumption wise it is definitely the cheapest miner available...
When is shipping of X3?

Go to settings, click on basic tab, then on the very first line change the setting to "preorders=false"
Do this with all your purchases. Sorted
Seriously, I'm sorry for your pain guys - I hope you get everything sorted, but it ain't looking good

Minersource reps:
Any news of X-3 shipments?
Any news of X-3 shipments?
So, Ive had my X1 mining for 14 hours now on 1000hz and looking on the webpage my error count was 6000+. Is this normal, acceptable?
Change to 1100Hz for best performance

Today I received a call from a lawyer for MS about my complaints and the refusal of the order. He said he's calling everyone that refused their order from MS. If you already have a lawyer, just give him their info.
I got my X1 miner today. Can anyone point me in the right direction of a setup guide with linking it to a pool etc?
I have managed to access the miner by finding the IP address from my routers attached devices but thats as far as I have got.
I have found the guide on Minersource not very helpful as the IP address on there didnt work and it doesnt say anything about adding pool details as the images on their guide are different to what I am seeing on the webpage.
Thanks

Try minersource thread
You want to google slushpool and create an account with them.
You create a miner for example
x1.accountname
You go to your miner's web login
you go to pools
url: stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333
user: x1.accountname
pass: password
it will start mining right away
In slush pool, point your payments to your bitcoin wallet.
It's pretty easy.
