Josh just announced that all pre-orders will be shipped out within 29 days.
If true, definitivelly best news today.
Lol, do you think Phinnaeus Gage is a teller of truth?
Well Phinnaeus (I think) got that info from a post where Josh said he expected the backlog to be cleared by the end of August or something like that.
EDIT: He says it here:

Yes, I still expect us to be through the back orders by the end of August.
BFL delivery estimates are a moving target so it's not surprising you might have missed this one. This update moving the target again appears to have been penned about 5 days after he wrote the one about clearing the back log by end of August. I would expect sometime in the next couple of weeks we will hear how it will be end of October and so on (until the house of cards comes tumbling down!).
https://forums.butterflylabs.com/bfl-forum-miscellaneous/3703-josh-its-time-update-bfl-asic-status.html#post45852I did talk to suppliers and ran some calculations. With the current order book up to today, I expect it to be filled by the end of September. I'm not sure what order number we'll get up to by the end of August, but we'll be pretty far into it by then. I'll probably have a better idea by the middle of this month.
