When are the Gen3 Asicminer products will be release, and where do I get more info on it?  should be released soon enough and you have 907 pages on this topic to read up for more infos  I wonder how many weeks going take to read of all of 97 pages.  Takes quite a while, I am working on just that now for a project. Mostly takes a while when a different thread (about a specific product or issue) takes you away from this topic for a long time and then you come back having spend several hours to get through the content in one post.

It'd be scarier to read all 907 pages of this thread ^^ (Cough I think I did at one time or another lol)
Hence the reason for "senior member" status. The rest of us just ask questions, get flamed for being a newb and hopefully gain something useful in the process.  Forum etiquette. Got to love it.

I think there is going to be 30-40% increases in difficulty in the coming months. The 3-4% increase right now a nice bonus before the storm.
Which 3-4% increase "right now"? See the last two plots here http://bitcoin.sipa.be/ The daily growth rate has been steadily falling since November last year. It really looks like the explosion in network difficulty is seriously slowing down. Not so long ago we were speculating the total network hashrate could quickly reach 1000PH/s. Now we're at 30PH/s and even 100PH/s seem far off. Friedcat indicated in the "Chinese girl interview" that he would deploy/sell at least a few hundred PH/s. So: What percentage of total bitcoin hashrate will be using AM's chips within 12 months? More than 50% does not seem unreasonable. Assuming selling chip ROI >= mining ROI (else FC should't be selling chips) then 50% of total hashrate = 650,000 coins = more than 1 Btc per share The problem with that assumption is that mining ROI varies from location to location. In China, it may be the case that fast, stable internet and large amounts of clean power are expensive. And by clean, I don't mean environmentally friendly, I mean stable voltage and current.

However, I've gained an insane amount of weight since then so it would take a minor act of god, or a really good surgeon to ever wear it again. That is of course unless I wanted to look like this guy...

9 shirts for 9 lives? I prefer dogs. At least they pretend to listen. If I see an announcement soon. I'll listen.

I quite like the quirky originality of a cat in a frying pan on my chest... a geeky fashion statement that pretty much no one will get - perfect. maybe I'll just make my own... hmmm

+1 Hardly a panic. Friedcat makes strategic moves not tactical ones. From all my readings he isn't chasing his tail like most of the other ASIC makers to pedal a few sub par chips before they go broke. ASIC's will come out when they will achieve their aim IMHO and that's when they are optimized in cost and performance while being produced and deployed in sufficient numbers to achieve a clear advantage. Speculation is going to run wild. Stick to references from credible sources. One who is quoted, is known to have knowledge and would protest to being misrepresented. The rest is just noise.

Has there been any actual information since FC's last post on the forums? I don't get the increase in share price. It's as if it was driven by the lack of news and information.
It seems to me like we're all here sitting blind while a select few get access to information and can profit from it. That's not a market I want to be a part of, and that's before getting into whether or not current share price is justified even if AM does deliver and on time.
