Tracking info is now being updated. Looks like they are just now leaving Hong Kong. I have my fingers crossed for Saturday delivery, but it will be early next week at the latest.

I'm so ready for a cube!

Update:
My cubes were picked up from Hong Kong on Monday, but tracking has not been updated since. Could be that they just haven't been scanned along the way. I've got DHL tracking them down right now and should have an update within the next 4 hours.

Someone mentioned a Corsair CX750 I assume that wouldn't run 2x though?
The CX750 will run 2 OK. I'm beating the crap out of a CX750 here with 2x V1 Blades overclocked, 2x overclocked Jalapenos, 2 USB hubs full of BlueFurys and Block Erupters, a network switch and a RPi. It's only pulling 400W from the wall, and is running totally cool.

Ready for 2.

I have obtained a tracking number and my second batch of cubes should be arriving any day now. Get your bitcoins ready, units will be 1 BTC each.
Yeah. Ready..

since no US reseller has gotten a 2nd shipment of Cubes.... is it safe to assume the guy in the UK thread was correct about China Customs going after bitcoin equip?
No, not a chance. There is another board buy who had boards shipped out of China today and they're on they're way just fine.
alright.... just havent seen any in the USA since the first batches....

Nice 
just received my cubes today, time to set them up! Thanks Crazyguy
Edit: both up and running at ~ 37560Mh/s

I'm gonna be working up and testing some modified server-grade power supplies for these that should run two at full clock, daisychainable so you can link several and they all power on from one switch (or ATX supply), hopefully cost-effective.
Also looking into pushing the overclock further. Good results so far.
If anyone's interested in either thing, I should have results next week. Not to threadjack, CrazyGuy, but folks were mentioning power supplies. And yes the stickers on the fans are garbage, but easily accessible. Also I received my order from this guy in two days, pretty great stuff. Much appreciated.

Please feel free to post your results or anything you find, I'm pretty excited to see what you do with the cube.
maybe we can collect such infos central in a info thread, instead divided over all sales threads...
for example: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/info-asicminer-cube-335440
And yes, the sticker on the fans unfortunately dissolves very quickly. best is to remove it before you start mining

@wiredmine It could be, the wires from the psu's gets really hot. If you look at the plugs its just bridged from one plug to the other. If I get another set of cubes I wont be getting these psu's again. I will most likely get a more expensive corsair maybe the cx750m 59$ on newegg after the rebate. Those have a seperate set of wires for each pci express 6pin plug.
Also yea I bridged the green wire plug to a ground wire. You can see the yellow wire loop in the picture on the left one.

I'm pretty sure. Just to be safe though, the first google search yields this:
http://www.overclock.net/t/96712/how-to-jump-start-a-power-supply-psu-test-a-power-supply-and-components , which describes the paperclip method in nice detail.
I'd like to know of other ways if you'd like to enlighten me.

I've only ever used the paper clip method

Yes,
There's no other way to turn on the PSU unless you have a motherboard.

Thanks guys
@herener from the photos it looks like your using a bronze TR2 600W power supplies, I've not read good things on Thermaltake power supplies these days. Do you think that might be a reason for the cut outs your experiencing?
I'm thinking of getting a corsair Gold rated RM650 for each cube. money wise, it would be better using a single gold 850w but 1 of the cube's is split with a couple work makes and we'll be running from work so i CBF messing around with splitting electricity costs for my 2nd cube. I'd rather just run mine from home separately. (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EB7UIXM/ref=ox_sc_act_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER)
Also just wondering do you need to use the paperclip trick to power on the PSUs? I assume so?
Cheers
