With a 59% or more rise in difficulty next increase (https://blockchain.info/charts/hash-rate) I wonder whether I should cancel my Saturn order?

All manufacturers seem to have large orders due to be shipped before KnCMiner ships so Jumps of 110,000GH/s per fortnight may continue several more times if not each difficulty change.

Current jump is more than total capacity beginning of June!

I had been thinking of upgrading Saturn to Jupiter. Now it's unlikely. More likely I cancel during next few weeks while I still can!

Hopefully their planned March 2014 offering will make a good investment & ROI.

Your estimates are highly exaggerated. You'll see tonight Wink

Yip, your right.

Have since learned difficulty changes based on speed last 2016 blocks solved. Current set was due 25^th so completed way to quickly.

If 297TH/s figure I saw becomes average over future 2016 blocks they'll be solved very quickly. Then my estimate will apply. Only off by a week or so Grin
