We have yet to see profitable and plausible scrypt ASICs coming
Gridseed looks promising but not quite profitable at this stage
I saw those from Fibonacci, they claim to do 1-1.2Mh/s at higher the price of similar hashes generating GPU, in return for less power consumption.
Not much big deal
Think again. Specs and price coming out within 2-4 weeks. As soon as they have something, I'm stopping by to visit. I live about 1.5 hrs. away.

4-5 months after pre-orders are taken"
lmao same shit as bitcoin asic
Product did get delivered though right?
Wow, not only here in England, but only 20 minutes away. I may be interested in pre-ordering a couple of these babies.
It's the power consumption that's the killer for Scrypt mining - and a Scrypt ASIC that I won't be paying customs on, can collect in person, and can actually go banging on the door of the place if they fail to appear?
Sounds good.
Depends on the price , 5MH/s for 150 watts is good.
specs as per
https://alpha-t.net/news/development-update-17122013/Summary
ASIC Chip: 28/45nm @ 300-500Kh/s
Viper Board: Multiple ASIC Chips = 5,000Kh/s
Viper Miner (5 Mh/s): 1 x Viper Board, ~150 watts, 1u size rack mountable. Fully standalone.
Viper Miner (25 Mh/s): 5 x Viper Board, ~750 watts, 6u size rack mountable, fully standalone.
Note. The finalising of our ASIC design will not affect the end product hash-rate. 5Mh/s and 25Mh/s devices are final.
