Our first units have been confirmed via Tracking to have left Black Arrow, ETA is Friday/Saturday/Monday depending on the UPS Express timing. Our next shipment is to leave BA Monday/Tuesday, that should comprise of the rest of Batch One, and almost all if not all of Batch 2 and 3. More information to follow.
None of these units have LCDs, I was informed they would be ready after the shipment next week.
How did we go from this to this:
This is a Facebook post from today
"Minersource.net We did not ship any units yesturday, only a few local pickups. First units will be shipped to customers today, continuing for the next 2 weeks or till everyone has their unit.

Seems like the majority will not receive X-1's until at least 1 more difficulty change.
Those don't sound mutually exclusive.
MS got their first shipment Monday the 23rd. It sounds like BA was shipping out another big wad of boxes leaving their facility in China also on the 23rd.
So MS gets the first shipment sometime Monday afternoon and starts processing inventory. It sounds like they have been in full force shipping mode getting stuff out the door today. I wonder how much inventory they got? So that will take however long it takes to ship. At some point they will run out and then start shipping the next wad of boxes that will arrive in a week maybe(I'm not sure of the shipping time from there to the US.)
BA being so late isn't reasonable but these shipping timetables seem realistic. I have a bunch of batch 2 X-1s that I wish would hurry up :-(
