I'm a noob when it comes to FPGAs and ASICs, so I apologize in advance for my noobishness    but with all this talk of BFL ASICs, I think it's about time I look at selling my GPUs. I admit I have pre-ordered a couple Jalapenos, and have bought one single in the past, however I am among those who don't particularly like their business practices, so I am pleased to see a potential competitor.

I have not been closely following this discussion, but I have a couple questions that I didn't see answered.

1. The estimated specs of each chip sound great, even if they end up being off somewhat, however, how many chips will be in each "Block Erupter" device?

2. "~150k$ for 130nm, ~500k$ for 65nm, furthermore much less if you do a 1/N mask" means almost nothing to me  roughly how much do you estimate each "Block Erupter" will cost to us customers?

3. From the threads discussion, is sounds like this product may be ready sometime by the end of this year? I didn't really see any firm ETA, so I was wondering if there is one available at this point? Assuming BFL actually does start shipping at the end of October/November, is there any possibility this product will be shipping by then?
