Hmmm....


BFL have announced half price Monarchs for new orders with existing pre-order customers having to swallow full price for early ASIC fabrication.

Though there will not be any offer of redress coming from BFL for existing (I don't know if LRM has any 'special relations' with BFL) would it be worth putting in an order for half price cards knowing that they will offer the same return (ish) taking increase in difficulty into account?

BFL have stated that thousands of wafers will be available in order to drive their GH/s contracts so new Monarch orders should turn around relatively quickly (4 - 6 weeks?) once chips are available from the foundry.

Thoughts (keep them constructive!!!) ?
