This kinda puts us in US under big disadvantage.
We pay roughly (i haven't checked in a while) same as EU customers yet we get same product 3-4 weeks after EU. And we all know what that means.

   EMC is working for me too and are you using port: 3333 for first one

Yeah, with a 27 hours blocks, lol

The next two weeks are crucial for ROI. US ROI estimate: http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/a/15281afd05. Not looking good.

EU customers are going to get decent ROI due to early delivery. http://mining.thegenesisblock.com/a/333c1299c7

Ignore the date. Just pay attention to the starting difficulty.

That's going to depend on when Dave actually ships. EU customers are already receiving their kits and mining at 150MM. Huge win for them.

I hear you brother. That's why I sit on the sidelines and eat popcorn hoping these units don't ship on time so I can try to recoup some of the money I wasted on Asicminer gear.

 Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say that, but it's reasonable to say we're paying close to a $2,000 USD premium for these full October units if they are shipping towards the last half of the month.

Still waiting on a refund..

H cards have a good chance at ROI, provided you can OC each card above 34 GH/s (this takes time and some skills).

I predict Hcards will ROI in Fiat at 3-7 months timeframe.

Starter kit by itself does not have a good chance.  (only if you bought during August).

Full Kit can ROI  3-7 months.


Again ROI in fiat, not btc.  Assuming prices stay around $140/btc and that one can maintain each card at an average of 34Ghash/sec per card for months at a time 24/7/30.
