What is your estimate of when they will actually ship? They were always gonna be late, we ALL knew that (apart from maybe some newbies who did literally zero research before they sank a few thousand bucks....)
Question is....how late? A whole year like last time? Or maybe 4-5 months this time? Like if I ordered one now, do you think having one by say....April is out of the question?
Not taped out. 2 to 3 weeks for that.
15 weeks minimum from tape out was based on their website till they removed the information.
Order today best case scenario?
18 to 20 weeks. Up to 5 months. April? But can you trust them to make that deadline? Really you are much better off avoiding BFL.
Why bother? So many other units available and shipping before that with PROVEN designs.
Such as? (Please suggest some, as I want to buy sooner rather than later).
Also...I didn't avoid bfl, back in 65nm days, and despite having to wait for such a long time, I still am glad I did!
