Update:

We are continuing to work on the USB bootloader, which we hope to have finalized this week. Once the USB bootloader has been completed, we will begin work on the I2C connection and optimizing the firmware, while continuing to optimize CGminer.

Assembly refunds:

We have been working on the assembly refund process as time permits, and will be sending an email with instructions in the next few days. We appreciate your patience in this matter.

I can't wait to see the PIC16 USB bootloader source code! It'll be the first I've seen available anywhere.

Ten bucks says its well more than "the next few days" before we get details on hardware refunds. We've heard that "update soon" bullshit before, and too often. I KNEW he would completely avoid the assembly refund issue! I am REALLY pissed now! I'll be spending "the next few days" filing legal complaints.

Don't get me wrong - this is semi good news for those still waiting on miners... I'm glad to see that someone may actually get them. Congrats to those to actually FINALLY get started mining.

There something wrong with this bootloader?

Edit! Oh I see, it's serial...

As I said, PIC16 USB bootloaders aren't exactly a dime a dozen. PIC18 is easy...

I'm assuming/hoping the bootloader will be open source with everything else. I'm really curious to see it. I just wish BkkCoins had shipped the PIC chips I ordered - I could really use them for a different project.
