I seriously think it should come out in October, I am waiting for a miniRig, 6 weeks into the order :-). If i were in your shoes, I would wait until they start taking orders for the new product. It does not justify buying a MR now.
Why do you want to order a MiniRig now that the new products are around the corner. Just wait a month or two.
That is what I want to discuss with them - preOrder, Leadtime, Tradein etc
If the new one ship in October then yes you are right. If it end up being later in 2013 well...

Will see about that

Well I can only guess that BFL is busy because I have sent them numerous emails and left a couple of voice mails to discuss buying a mini rig or two and I have not gotten a response back as of yet
It's take a few days for them to get back to me. I'm attributing it to the fact that they've probably been a little busy lately.
Agreed -we have been dealing with this for 6+ months now

Par for the course - especially now as they have product to ship...
It's a strange consumer experience to tell a company that you have a pile of cash you want to send them and get no response.

Giga, what do you plan to do about trade in? I guess it's only $60,000 extra in about 6 months.
I'm guessing if anyone would know more details about how the trade in program will actually work, he would be the one. Aka what would could you trade 4 MR in for, and how much extra would you have to spend?
Trade up would be his 4 MR+$60k for 4 ASIC MR

As far as I know Giga bought four minirigs more. That means it's 16 SC rigs + $120k.
16TH which is more than current network hashrate. No wonder he reserved teraminig at glbse.
He cancelled the additional 4.16TH which is more than current network hashrate. No wonder he reserved teraminig at glbse.
Good call. He was lucky that BFL revealed their trade program rules.

Did I read correctly that the Mini Rigs Require a 208v circuit and not a 110v?
I'm sure that is just to be more efficient, not a requirement.

8TH... That's about 2/3 of the total network speed today!
