Negative mention of Zaffire

internettelephony.com

The article is entitled "From the top down" and talks about the departure of high level executives from fiber optic startups, mentioning Zaffire, Sorrento, Nanovation and Cyras. Some quotes:

"What’s going on? In the burning hot optical space, why are these guys jumping ship? The CEO exodus doesn’t reflect well on start-ups, which are so new they can’t afford many setbacks."

"Speculation runs high that these vendors are behind the optical eight ball in one fashion or another. Could it be that the executives of these companies—successful at bringing in money on the front-end—are taking off because the start-ups can’t fulfill on the back-end?"
