If you can read and understand what KnC has announced, you will make the conclusion that they will ship sooner than you think.
knc have announced nothing other than Q1/Q2 delivery for neptune.
When you say you expect them to deliver sooner, I assume you mean Q1?
I'm just pointing out they are still working on the neptune chip design - their director of miscommuniucations states that.
So it won't be sooner than "expected", i.e. Q1.
If it's Q2, that is what is expected.
You are misdirecting people, leading them to believe knc will deliver in Q1.
