somebody called and woke me up in the middle of the night for this, so I'll keep it short.

1a. see the conference video, I thought that's an update; for the lazy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LY1xgGiejIc
1b. also got cornered after the panel and somebody took this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtVx26LlNXA
2. an update incoming in < 1 week, pretty exciting.
3. we fully understand there is problems with orders ( no way?! )
- we can not address these issues IF WE DO NOT SOLVE OUR PRODUCTION ISSUE then we can not DELIVER at all.
- so until that happens, get all your information ready and bump the ticket if it makes you feel better, or just wish to complain and blow off some steam. ( please do not create new ones though, usually looking at the support system ticket insolvency merging at least 5-6 other ones first... ).
4. this forum is a giant waste of time, get back to coding, go outside, hug your mother, do something,

lastly, food for though:

who says we control that address in the first place?  Wink


Thanks for re-posting this Bitcoinorama, I actually hadn't seen it until now.  Technically, we didn't "corner" Yifu at the conference.  We all sort of huddled around him after his speech and since there were other speakers coming into the room, we all collectively moved outside.  Things are probably a bit different now, but at the time people were thankful that he was able to deliver miners when Josh couldn't.   Some guy even handed him an ice cream bar when he said he was hungry; another guy offered to take his trash before Yifu took it back and said he's going to throw away his own trash.  Now it's unknown what's going on, especially since this (chip design) is the direction he really wanted to take his company so to alienate his customers for a $10 million or so (this could be a helluva bigger enterprise if he delivers) would be short-sighted since he'd be josh'ing his reputation for the rest of his life at 23. 

I'm hopeful it will be resolved soon.
