ahhh yes Jack you have a very fine bashers touch, cut with out making bleed...good for you.

As Baba mentioned, this nonsense about IR's closed mouth approach (which was gven to them by their employers I might add, so you may want to lay blame where it belongs) is just that, nonsense. If you still don't understand why POET must be closed mouthed perhaps you should go back and re-read the last several weeks of posts where it was virtually verified that the Anadigics/Wavetek fiasco was caused by loose lips....what part of that are you not understanding Jack?

Please, for me, if not all of us, please stop stating the obvious; of course no one here knew that it would take years to commercialize this product, because, well, none of us are computer sceintists working in a manufacturing facility.....but so what? Other than the timeline being extended substantially, nothing has changed, Dr.T's work is still some of the most innovative ever seen in computer science and the excellence of our team is second to none.

If that's not good enough Jack, too bad....T'm not in the mood to hear about how you didn't think it would take so long....
