Awesome product.
Unfortunately, your price point is, to be blunt, retarded.


Well, considering that a video card that makes 300 MH/s is about $150 right now (My XFX 6870 from eBay used cost me $70), I'd say it's a little hefty in the price range.  What does one of these draw?  I'm assuming about 5 or 6 watts vs a video card's 100 or so?  Big difference.

I'd like two; someone please point me in the right direction for participating in a group buy and I'm there.

You people should really stop keep justifying high prices for the new ASICs products by comparing them with old technologies.

Exactly. It should only be compared to existing technologies that are currently shipping. Oh wait - that's FPGAs and graphics cards!  Shocked
