My friend already get the 5 USB miner for me for 0.5BTC from a Chinese reseller. It's kind of unfair if the US groupbuys do not have that offer.

Wow. If this is true, that it is only for Chinese resellers, which it appears to be since Friedcat is silent about it, ASICminer will be losing a lot of loyal customers.

I think everyone needs to calm down a peg. Not only is it entirely possible that the Chinese resellers are NOT directly involved with ASICMINER but rather just selling their own privately manufactured USB Eruptors since the Avalon/Asicminer chips are now available and the USB Eruptors design is publicly available, but it is also possible or even likely that ASICMINER simpley haven't made the announcement as they are still busy shipping orders etc.

I have dealt with Canaryinthemine several times and I can pretty much guarantee that is is definitely not keeping any information from anyone.

People also need to remember that is the rumors are true this still does not mean that Canaryinthemine has any obligation to sell 0.1 USB miners. I am not so sure I would even want to package, ship and handle THOUSANDS of very small orders with little to no profit just because ASICMINER decides to change the cost of future products.

Everyone, including myself purchased a product for a price. Not a future product or promise of one.

Agreed, you should expect to pay the same markup he is currently charging for shipping and handling. .14/ unit for orders under 10 and lower handling fees for large orders would be fair in my opinion. Of course, this is assuming the rumors are true.
