Here is the officail complaint
You can file your own at
https://apps.fcc.gov/oetcf/kdb/index.cfm
on left click on "submit an inquiry"
then after filling your information select complaint
then non compliant equipment

This is the Federal Government folks, each and every complaint HAS to be followed up on!

I spoke with Jim Szeliga re: Butterfly Labs www.butterflylabs.com
He said to file a complaint and to ask it get routed to him if needed to speed things up since he is up to speed a bit.

The company has terrible customer service which has lead me to start digging looking for problems with the company I was reading
http://transition.fcc.gov/Bureaus/Engineering_Technology/Documents/bulletins/oet62/oet62rev.pdf

and my intrepration of a external periphial computing device requires some form of written authorization and the company will not provide it and deleted me access to their discussion forums.

Butterfly Labs
has been marketing / selling these products for nearly 2 years
they told me they do not need any FCC approval

They are selling a essentially a math co processor for a computer that is a external periphial running at over 9mhz their devices plug into a computer and do complex math problems, they market and sell online to residential customers and have been for some time.

I have spent over $8,000.00 with them and want my money back. Many others have been affected, there are thousands of customers and they are coming out with a new product as well a internal card to process computations as well.

Please look into their 10 Giga Hash and 50 GH products those are the ones I bought and I'd be happy to submit a device for quick enforcement action.

Please look at their website to confirm marketing to anyone and offering equipment for sale without any FCC approvals or authorizations. Also I believe one of the main people in the corporation is an ex felon if that makes any difference.

Contact info follows, they have NEVER returned my phone calls!

http://www.butterflylabs.com/

Their address is

Butterfly Labs
10770 El Monte #101
Leawood, KS 6621
800-809-6463

PS I could not find any corporation listed at that address or name by the
Kansas Business Entity Search
https[Suspicious link removed]cution=e1s2
the only thing that comes up is BF Labs at a different address. it looks like I need to address that as well with the Kansas dept of corporations, that will be my next complaint.
