FPGA accelerator board: Vampire 2 (A600) becomes more expensive
According to "kipper2k", who is the producer of the FPGA-based accelerator board Vampire II (A600), the price for one board will increase from 150 Euro to 250 or 289 Euro because "the orders are much greater than the production rate and i cannot cope with the demand". Therefore the only option is to "to have the boards assembled by a board house to increase production".

From now the Vampire II is available in two different versions. The price for the standard version, which is euqal to previous ones, will be 250 Euro. The "Black Edition" is equipped with a faster CPU ("x13 clockspeed") and will be available for 289 Euro. If you have already paid in advance, then you will get your commercially assembled board for 150 Euro.

In Future the next 100 persons who had preordered will be asked to pay in advance and after getting the money the next production will be started. About four to five weeks later, the customer will get his board.

kipper2k also wrote: "We understand that this price hike appears high, Prices have been held low from day 1 and all prepaid orders on Amibay are being honoured by Majsta at a loss. These preorders have allowed the development of the project to be completed so the people who have supported the project from the beginning will reap the benefits of their investment."
