Bitmain, congratulations on the release of the S4. Unfortunately, the pricing and efficiency do not justify the purchase.

Amen! all of that HYPE! for nothing! Already better price points available in the market now. Even from Bitmain on the S3s and purchasing a power supply.

What confuses me is why go through all of that just to disappoint your buyers?

simple, they want to drive people to their cloud product where they have more control over the customer and less exposure to liability .

Very well stated, hadn't even crossed my mind. Went from selling a somewhat decent product to a cloud hustle.

well the unit is about 1600 usd shipped to me in New Jersey ,USA

I can buy 2900 shares of their cloud for the same price.

So 2.9th and no hassles vs 2.0th and hassles

Or I can buy from cex.io about 2.2th easy to trade shares this makes the s-4 very hard for a little guy.

I did get 1 s-3 on ebay a week ago and I ordered 1 s-3 on ebay last night.

my cost for the 2 was about 540 usd. will stay with them for now.

Make sure to upgrade your CG Miner. The version shipped by BitMain on S1, S2, and S3, (S4 unconfirmed) has widely documented security holes and BM isn't releasing their code even though it's licensed as open source development.
