Check the first posts in the original thread.
Why pre order from a re-seller? Just order direct from Sidehack, they will arrive just as quickly.

oh maaaaan...

I just found out about this. (a day after sidekick ran out of stock).

Pleas post a release date for the second batch as soon as you know it.

yup. I can't wait !  Grin

You can check online retailers. There's one in Canada, bitcoinware, it sell for much cheaper than what i got mine from with the group buy. Check it out, its not too late Smiley

They also say "COMING SOON. PRE-ORDER NOW".  Interesting though if someone buy and be able to sell less to canada.   Anyone know who is the owner of that site?

Edit: They raised the price significantly now, its pretty much the same price now but with Valkir we got it much much sooner.

New plan. Batch 2 heatsinks will now be pink.

Batch 2 is the second half of the 1000 run. Heatsinks and PCBs were purchased in quantity for the entire 1000 run. Heatsink color choice for the entire 1000 run was deliberate. I will not offer different colors because there is only one color heatsink that I have and only one color heatsink that I will be installing on any of the sticks in this 1000 run. Maybe I'll consider changing it up if we do a new Compac version with a new chip, but every BM1384 production-version Compac that I ship will have the green heatsink. The decision was made six months ago and the heatsinks were purchased two months ago and I'm not changing it now.

Which is to say, yes I have a deliberate color choice specifically for Batch 2 and it is the same as for Batch 1.

Aw, you killed our fun, we're going to bicker over the colours, then you could of piped up saying "I Haz perfect colour! This!" and show the original!




At least hes trying to redeem himself xD
There's probably some thermal-ok paint you could slap on the heatsink if you *really* wanted to go with wavy shades ofpink/fushia? Tongue

Hmm that sound tasty. I think i'd use a pic of that as Avatar for a while.

you know, dumping them in bleach would probably eat the green and blue dies.. Cheesy

if you haven sent mine yet, try it on one of mine, then sign it "love sidehack" Yeah

No. Color choice is deliberate.

As of right now, I am coming up on the end of my available parts so am suspending sales until we're ready to start rolling the next batch. This will probably be a week or two from right now, since we're waiting on some funds to arrive and then go right back out for parts.

All pending orders will go out within the next three days.

Once we start rolling on the second batch, unless orders come flying in, we should be able to ship from standing stock without a backlog. Hopefully some of the issues with this batch that caused a lot of manual work requirement will be resolved on the next batch.

Thanks for update.  It could be a horrible idea.  But it seems people like to collect the colors on a lot of USB sticks.  Have you thought about using a different color heatsink for second batch?

The last two small orders (both from this week) are going out, as well as Australia and one other bulk. This leaves me with 4 bulk orders, one of which will go out Monday and the other three are still pretty fresh. I should have them all out by middle or end of next week.
