I can't believe the nonsense about the refunds in BTC I've read in this thread. It's been clarified by official statement several times by HF, I don't have a nerves to search two HF threads, but it's there somewhere:
All refunds will be in the currency payed by customer. If you paid in US$, they would refund the exact same amount in US$. If you paid in BTC, refund will be in BTC, but all the payments are calculated to be in the US$ on the day of the payment. That's important: day of the payment. Go check the BTC/US$ historic value on the day you paid, divide BTC paid with it, and expect BTC value of that US$ amount on the day of the refund. Hashfast never considered refunding BTC payments in US$, but they've made it clear that accounting value is in the US$ currency. I'm burned also by this policy, but consider these facts before you officially request a refund not to be burned with the consequences when you receive the fraction of the BTC paid as full refund. You can always prepare yourself for a legal action against HF if you don't like this, but this have been confirmed and other claims are just wishful thinking.

Why are you talking about refunds? HF still has 22 full days until every single batch one customer gets what he paid for.
That's plenty of time.

The tree days estimate has something to say.
Are you suggesting they're testing the chips right now?
no, it comes from KnC Nov batch.
source?
source???
KNC just ship about 2 petahash of jupiters and saturns and people have been posting for the last 10 days as they have received them.  

hey, this 570 devices with 400 GH/s are just 228 TH/s. this is nothing compared to KnC.
my guess is they have serious issues because the CEO is a marketing guy. all good news would go instantly public.

or they are tweaking and want to communicate the best possible result
with a deadline of three weeks left? they must have ball of steels!  Wink

maybe they have Wink
who knows? CEO looks like such a lucky one! Barber looks more like a phlegmatic one.

I'd postulate that the advertised number of devices is always smaller than the real order by at least 4 fold. That combined with a good yield may allow them to possess about a petahash by now.

But I agree with the assessment that dropping silent after announcing a mockup(?) doesn't create a credible story for Hashfast being the ones who are responsible for the hashing power increase.

It was not a sign of mistrust, but of convenience for a supporting link. I am not following KnC closely.

Not bad, though I'm a bit disappointed by the CEO bubble. Provided his posture, left hand position, and smile, I was expecting something more sexy.

EDIT : or maybe just a soundtrack:
