If we buy that how long before it's obsolete?

It will never be obsolete per se.  FPGA's can be reconfigured to work on other jobs, so they could be resold or repurposed.

Looks like these spartan 6 hash at 350 MH/s, looks like the HDL code is somehow optimized.

Thanks. With BTC prices lower, I thought FPGA and ASIC would drop. Guess that didn't happen. Still people are looking around for powerful BTC mining rigs and ASICs are still scarce.

Already spoke to them they are FPGA that are 1 to 2GH depending on how configured and wil lcost you $1,999 as spoke to their support.

I stumbled across an article on Bitcoin today, clicked on the link to the article, and clicked on another link to a BTC mining rig being sold in China. Is this suppose to be a FPGA or ASIC? Looking at the pics, it does seem to mine BTC.
