As far as the units not being 120 GH, we totally hear you guys on that, but there isn't a whole lot we can do about that, believe me, at least 75 pages (!) out of the 350+ pages of the Russian 65nm thread are people complaining they didn't get the 120 GH and only 96-105 or so. Hopefully like the avalons and BFL units at some point somebody will figure out how to overclock them and share with everyone.

I would strongly recommend not to rely neither on Sep 15 nor on overclocking.

It seems that Metabank will be done with shipping not earlier than the end of September (or even later). This is a total BS about 40 units per day. Or there are some hidden customers noone knows about. The whole Metabank preorder was about 400 pcs of single units. Ten days to ship at specified rate. Why does it take longer then?

As for overclocking - Metabank runs its chips at 2.5-2.7 Gh/s. It means that overclocking to 3 Gh/s will raise power consumption might be one and a half or even two times. Besides, each device is "missing" an additional extension card which would drive device up to 120 Gh/s at 2.5Gh/s chip speed and regular power consumption. E.g. Metabank's devices don't really have any hoarded resources to rely on.

I've personally made a refund. I recommend that you reestimate profits from October shipped units - will they cover network hashrate growth? I don't really think so.
