There's an update on Acorns:

This is the first Acorn CLE101 off the PCB production line.

Well theyre coming off the line! So were at least pretty close to schedule. Heatsinks/fans have to arrive, final assembly, burn in, pack, ship. ...
....Long pole is definitely the heatsinks/fans, which have to come off production and ship in from Asia ~
But having the working boards in-hand instills a lot of confidence in timing....
....Target has always been August 31st. Still looks achievable but short delays can always happen.
Ill be sure to let anyone (sic) know if we have reason to believe they will.

This is nice to see, not to be a politically correct asshole though but August 31st was never mentioned to us august buyers. It was "end of august" so this was really leveraging the timeline in literal terms. It also more than likely makes september preorders even more lucrative while shafting your first customers on mining time.

Just some thoughts from an early buyer of these. When delays are known post it immediately so we arent wondering why its end of week one September and our acorns are still not delivered.

I hope the standalone mining of the cle 215+ blows my mind. It was advertised as being stand alone mining vs. The lower spec cheaper acorns , so when i see people ask and the responses the squirrel team gives on its solo mining capability they were less than comforting. Which again was another catch for us early buyers. So i really pray this was a case where you guys are just under promising so you can over deliver. If not then expect major disappointment from 215+ buyers.

If the acorns from august are delivered in September then they are late, buyers bought August expecting August.
