Understandable, what makes you think they will be shipping soon?
The updates they've given on the butterflylabs.com forum.  They have the chips now, it's just a matter of bumping, packaging, and assembling the units before they can ship.  Provided nothing goes wrong, it should be quite soon.  If something goes wrong, it could be another few months (hence the 12 weeks bit).  But I think there is a good chance they'll be shipping soon.

don't you find it at least the slightest bit odd that they refuse to take pictures of the chips?  the bumping?  nothing?

posts like this must disturb even the strongest BFL supporter:  https://forums.butterflylabs.com/bfl-forum-miscellaneous/1034-february-14th-2012-update-discussion-thread-8.html#post15426

Yes, but I am not posting the timetable because it may change. I am very pleased with it, though.


Very pleased with the timetable? the timetable is well and fucked up by this point, we can all agree on that.  They also may ship sooner than expected, so that's good too.

I just realized that Josh's response to me calling him out on general bullying was to try and bully harder:
