They said "July" but they didnt say what year!
Touche sir. Well played.

\. even worse, they're liying about delivery time the whole time to get new users...
Gotta agree there. telling new customers ordering today will ship in july is uhhh.. wrong to put it simply.
BFL is just taking money and promising, while they're 1 year late....
Why do you bend reality? They are 6 months late (Oct 2012 - Apr 2013), not 1 year.

Congrats, now you can feel like a 5 years old.
BFL is just taking money and promising, while they're 7 months late.... even worse, they're liying about delivery time the whole time to get new customers...

They only ship them after they have mined with them for months 
Why ship at all then? Same goes for their FPGA boxes. Nice conspiracy theory.
They ship a few ASIC system to prevent their angry customers from descend upon their office like a horde of angry locust
But seriously, they need to show some "progress" so people won't ask for a refund. They also need to attract new capitals to continue their development.
Have you not read much lately? They need more capital to re-design their Little Single, Single, mini-rig, meaning new PCB, new case, new power/cooling design, new packaging... That's going to cost more time and money BFL can't afford if they still haven't ship anything... So they ship a few to buy themselves a little bit more time and money. They are not as dumb as some of you guys made them out to be. They sure are good at stringing their poor customers along.
Sounds like Ponzi...
Kano and I got ours today. Since Kano took photos I didn't see any need to myself:

But they couldn't mine that BTC without the capital for the wafer or specialized equipment to make the first mining rigs.
If they had large amounts of Jalapeno's or Singles working, they would be mining with them.

The swarm of locusts is more like a trickle of water from a leaking faucet:
"Monday 4/22 shipped 4 Jalapenos. 1 Customer and 3 developer units.
Tuesday 4/23 3 more to ship today to customers."

"Monday 4/22 shipped 4 Jalapenos. 1 Customer and 3 developer units.

-BFL_Jody
So when did 400 units per day become 4 units per day 
will I never get my order... at least not before quantum mining devices come out 
Were any shipped today!?
BFL needs to make more faster

I agree, if they actually showed signs of reasonable delivery times, I might place an order.
Mind you that goes for most of the ASIC proposals on this forum, if I knew from peoples testimony that I placed and order today I would have it in my hand on such and such date approx, they would get my business.
They wanted to ship some out to provide proof that they do have product. They're still waiting on the new boards to arrive to begin mass assembly, including assembly of the singles.

The price is another strange thing - 274$ a unit(150$ originally) is a rather low price for a custom build chip...
3$ is too expensive with their delivery records

I feel sorry for those people who have to deal with BFL, but this whole BFL fiasco is as good as it gets in terms of free entertainment.
