BFL's fab is in china.
so yeah.
i believe it's feb 8 for the start of chinese new year this year, so if they didn't get the chip shipment by mid-january...well, expect somewhere close to summer until you can get your asics.
If that's the case, would The Fab Feb FAB Fib be added to the lexicon? (Fab = fabulous)
that'd be fabulols.
