I don't see modules being offered at this juncture... it's just too late to be cost-effective for either KNC or the customer.
I'd be shocked & amazed if I'm wrong.
If they kept the price just high enough to take a small profit, it would be far over the current competitions $/Gh/s imho... and a hard sale.
If they do, it would be just to fulfill a promise to customers.
and no, they don't collect or accept BTC from equipment sales... they use BitPay, and receive cash in their bank account, which is why refunds are given in fiat to your bank. That argument has long since been "hashed-out" in here. Wink

BTW.....
Happy page 1500 KNC

I don't see them being offered at all simply so they don't have to bother with them, but price-wise they can make profit and sell them so that we could also make profit. They simply won't.

If you figure a November Jupiter inventory cost is roughly $1,000USD, take out $15 for casing, $100 for controller/wiring, you're left with modules roughly under $220/ea.

I don't have access to a calculator right now but if they sold modules for 120-140GH @ $300/ea, everyone is a winner. But they don't want to do that. Too much hassle, and too much increase of network hashrate which will hurt their datacenter plans.

hehe, I changed my thinking.....
They will just use the unsold ones on the farm whilst fufilling the promise to offer the boards, which probably wont sell very well, so....sure
