assuming all these orders will be used for bitcoin mining as well. There are several other opportunities for hashing.
Uh, no, not so much. Not for these BFL units at least - they can only work the Bitcoin stream because the firmware is locked (or better said, it is undocumented how to develop firmware for it).Well technically they could be used for other doubleSHA256 purposes, but I don't think there are any

I'm thinking about not paying my order (SC single) because of:
Help me out with the math please, I've been trying to find my error but I can't:
Current network total: 17.368 Thash/s
Total Orders (By Last Seen): 4493
That would mean there's at least a 15TH/s raise in total network hashing power?
If we would call the orders tracked in this topic representative for the population,
(I know they're not, but as raw estimate would be enough for me)
average hashingpower in GH /order * number of orders / 1000 to get an amount in TH
(161*3.5GH+194*40GH+22*1000GH)/159*4493/1000
=856 TH
That's more than 20 times the current hashrate?
Am I wrong?
Is there any one who can calculate the mining difficulty in relation to the network hashing power, with my or your estimate of hashing power in a few months?
I don't think it's a good idea to order any SC's right now... not with the number of orders waiting, huge potential for large hashrate increase, and potential of waiting for a year to receive your order. With a price of $11.00 and the current difficulty/hashrate, an SC Single would pay itself off in about a week. But, if we reach 500 TH/s (my estimate of where we'll end up with the current backlog of orders, as I am certain those who made large purchases won't be advertising them on the forum), and assume the same price, you're looking at 202 days to pay it off. If we reach your estimate of 856 TH/s, 345 days. And keep in mind, this whole time you are trying to pay it off, more people will keep on ordering them, increasing the difficulty (and your payback period) that much more.Help me out with the math please, I've been trying to find my error but I can't:

With the volatility in Bitcoin price and uncertainty about the difficulty in the future, I wouldn't want to stake my payback on that long of a period. I think I'd rather just invest in Bitcoins themselves at this point.

Also, don't be so certain that the order number increases by 1 each order.
August 30, 2012, 04:50:35 PM
And order number didn't start at 1.
August 30, 2012, 04:27:57 PM
Remember, while there are over 5,000 order numbers, not all of those have been paid and are going to be shipped units.

I ordered a FPGA Single on 6/3. I had the order transferred to 4 Jalapenos when they came out, and Jody said I have a 6/23 order date, but no order number needed.
