From what I know of the Avalon, the power requirements are going to make it only interesting to those that don't have to pay for power. Our units are optimized for power efficiency as well as performance, not just one or the other.

And how much power do they take?

The same or less than our current models.

You mean that they draw more power than your current models, don't you?
If not, and the Avalon draws less/same power or has more GH/s/$ than the Single SC, then we have a problem. I hope you have something in your bag in that case, at least something like a commercial gesture for your loyal pre-order customers.

We are only in September 2012, and we already have competitive offers against BFL. The ASIC competition might be stronger than we thought...
The difficulty throughout 2013 is gonna be scary.
