steamboat, if we ordered before assembly was available, can we add that onto our order now? (I have some chips in batch 3 and am interested in adding kit+assembly)

Yes, you may request assembly at any time. Batch 1 customers have been sent an email regarding assembly, and a second email will be sent this week.

Is it better to pay the 1.376 BTC and the 133.5 assembly now?

To my knowledge, steamboat is only accepting payment for chips now. You won't be able to pay for assembly until he has the chips.

Assembly will not be required until the price and process has been finalized.

Are these shipping now?

Not yet, no. Would estimate late Sept, Oct.-ish... we hope...

The chips are slated to arrive early to mid August. The assembled units are scheduled to be shipped 3 business days later.

That is SERIOUSLY exciting!!

BTW, I don't think I specified when I ordered if I want assembly or not (I do). Was I supposed to have already done that, or are you planning to ask everyone at some point?
Thanks again for all the work on this!

You may request assembly at any time.

hello, how much will it be just for the DIY kit without assembly?

The DIY kit contains the accessories needed for the unit to function, and costs $28.50. The board components cost $35, and may or may not be offered as a kit.

About $35 for K16-board & parts only-no assembly or ASIC chips.Not sure if a heatsink is included either.
The design is not finalized yet,so it may be more,but not much,maybe a few bucks.
A really good deal,if you ask me Grin

The board component cost for the K16 is $35, and does not include the heat sink, which is part of the DIY kit offered for assembled units. A component kit may or may not be offered.

What is the difference between fully assembled unit and just PCB with Assembly? There's a 35 dollar price difference between the two and I don't quite understand what they mean.

with fully assembled unit you don't have to send anything, with just PCB assembly, you need to send the extra components beside the chips.

I believe this may be a language barrier issue. The fully assembled unit does not require anything additional other than power and a host to function. The assembly only option requires the additional parts found in the DIY kit to function properly.
