<< Zaffire started shipping products three months ago and expects to post revenue by early next year.>>

This suggests a lag of 6 months or more between product shipment and booking of revenue. Being rather ignorant in this area, what does this suggest? Are all these going to beta customers? This statement:

<< Zaffire's pipeline of customers has picked up tremendously over the last few months>>

suggests not. Or is it simply a matter of a 6 month acceptance test at customer site prior to actual completion of sale, and therefore booking of the revenue, a situation that I understand and that appears to be sound practice.

Can someone knowledgeable in this area help?
