... according to my readings ...

... Abiomed and the Penn State Medical Center are the only
two viable competitors in the development of an artificial
implanted replacement heart.

However, a friend, who also owns ABMD, and who had a heart
transplant 13 years ago, told me this morning that his Dr, a
cardiologist at Brigham & Women's Hospital recently
mentioned to him another company, on the west coast, that
will be real competition to Abiomed in the heart replacement
market. He didn't recall the name of the company, but will
get it when he sees his Dr later this month.

Do you know the name of that company, and do you know of any
other serious competitors in this area?

Thanks. Ken Wilson
