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


What a convincing argument you've made, thanks for your wonderful contribution to this thread

he is right..stop trolling and tell us, why you think that it is good pricing/selling model (300pcs/order) - for end-user device.

Sorry for the late reply... admittedly, I haven't been following the hardware scene for a while, but it seems to me these compete pretty well with GPUs. They're a little more expensive than a GPU that will do 300 MH, but because they draw much less power, you'll be able to run them for much longer than a gpu without worrying about electricity costs (assuming these are pretty reliable)

As for the 300 min order count, I assume that's just so ASICminer can continue focusing on developing chips rather than selling and marketing them. Shouldn't be too hard to get one of these with a group buy- what's the issue?
