Looks like the minimum order has been dropped from 300 units to 50 units:

Is this group buy still planning to wait for the 300 mark? If not, I'll buy in.

Seems as the seller you end up with 10-12 free at 300pcs.
Not a bad deal.
I'm hoping to make a deal for 10pcs myself...

I was initially intrigued by these little guys, but then turned off by the price.
I'm in Canada, so I'd have to order 5 of these things... any thoughts on how long (if ever) it'd take to turn a profit running 5 sticks on a raspberry pi? Electricity is around 11c/kWh here.
I mean, I have the BTC, I'm just not sure what my level of risk would be in buying these.
minimal risk.... I'm in Canada, so I'd have to order 5 of these things... any thoughts on how long (if ever) it'd take to turn a profit running 5 sticks on a raspberry pi? Electricity is around 11c/kWh here.

http://p2pool.org/
there are a few crypto currencies that use the same hash as BTC and that peer to peer site lets you mine them, with 5 you could set 2 for BTC and the others on a different currency each. There is also an option for you of each to a different BTC pool or all on one. The end game as it were, depends on how much of a game changer letting 300 units total on to the currencies changes the hashing and cashing in on it.
Still a long way from my first BTC, and finaly up to 12MHash/sec. and want just one of these, but as a Canadian, that 5 min is gona kill my system trying to get it.

Maybe some one covered this somewhere but why should we trust OP with 90 thousand USD worth in Bitcoins?
if by "OP" you mean me, then the answer is because you can.Has someone already looked up past trades in the honest traders list, etc? Seems like a cool guy, but I haven't done that yet.
As far as signing with an address, perhaps I'm not as tech savy, but I don't know which address will send the transaction before I send one using my home wallet.
I always have to go look at the transaction using blockchain.info and sometimes it uses coins from multiple addresses. I've not signed before, is that in the original satoshi client at this time? Do I have to do that?
Perhaps someone can walk me through how to do that before I join? I hope to be available tonight or tomorrow AM.
I'm up to about 15 orders now and would like to start placing my orders once I learn how to sign and do some homework on Canary just to be safe.
Gonna check in with a few more friends to see how many more units I can add to this order. If the guy who wants 200+ pulls through, please announce 24 hours before ordering so those of us on the sidelines can have that grace period if you don't mind

CanaryInTheMine,
Considering 5-10 units.
When do you think this offer will close?
As soon as we reach 300, our order will be placed. Memorial weekend will probably slow everything down.. But hopefully this is ready in a week or so..Considering 5-10 units.

Has anyone got this ASIC miner to run on a Raspberry PI ?
Kano has one running with cgminer and the new MinePeon has support for it.
with --icarus-options 115200:1:1 --icarus-timing 3.0=100 options?

AFAIK the bitcoin wallet client does not show the address the the funds were sent from. You do need to go to blockexplorer.com and look up the address the funds were sent from. If sent from multiple addresses then you can pick one. once you have the address, then follow the directions youve read elsewhere, ie. click "sign", fill out the three fields, the click "sign message". now send all three fields to Canaryinthemine. He will be able to use the signature and the address to verify the contents of the message came from someone that controls the address.
if you didnt do this... some random internet person could send him a bogus mailing address, claiming they are you. this way he knows the mailing address and the funds came from the same person/wallet.

+1 to all of your points.
Here is a quick lesson on another group by on how to sign the transaction.
