Hi, what's the future plan for avalon now?
BITMAIN has sold over 100 Units probably using Avalon2 chips and they run quite well. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=355755.0)

@ProfMac
I'd appreciate mining cards to replace the 130nm cards in my Avalons. This would be just perfect for all Avalon users, because they could use their old devices and parts like PSU, TPlink and case with the new cards. Do you think this is possible?
As far as I undestand it, a similar working card like the ones in the first gen avalons could do around 4 times more than the old ones with the same energy consumption. An Avalon Mini would have 240 GHash/s and an Avalon with 4 cards even 480 GHash/s. This is almost the power of a KNC Jupiter with around 2 W/GHash
Please correct my if i'm wrong!

The mining plan for an Avalon Mini could look like this:
