Sad to hear about the delay, although I must admit that it's not a big surprise, given what I've seen occurring before with other companies.
I also realize that when something isn't working right and cannot be altered in time, other compromises unavoidably follow. Some customers would rather accept a quirky or less efficient product, delivered sooner (I for example, within certain limits, would prefer a less efficient miner sooner, since below a certain wattage, I produce my own electricity from solar energy at no cost) ...while other customers would prefer a more efficient product later.
Once initial promises cannot be adhered to, there also arises the trouble of some people accepting one or another proposed compromise plan... while others aren't satisfied with such arrangements. This causes hassle... negotiating, arguing, refunding orders... all of which either subtracts from work spent towards finished products, or overloads people who carry the burden of customer support.
In the current situation, I am inclined to wait. Thank you for this information. I wish it could have been released somewhat earlier. Also, thanks for the offer of 25% more hashing power when you get ready. Though I realize it may not cover the difference caused by delays, it seems acceptable and on my part, I accept it.
I hope that people at BA take all necessary measures to precisely and successfully reach distribution of products by May 1. I wish you success. Please be sufficently open about progress or setbacks. Early information helps alleviate doubts.
