I hate to bust your bubble but dont listen to your broker. It is not a breakthrough sytem. As a matter of fact it doesnt even work, and there is another company with a patented liposuction device already on the market for 9 months, selling like gangbusters. The company is Misonix(MSON). They and Mentor each had competing products and each received patents. MSON beat Mentor to market by over a year and now dominates the ultrsound liposuction market(essentially the only product out there , going international this quarter). Now just last week Mentor filed suit against Misonix in a last ditch effort to save face with their shareholders. Misonix says the suit is without merit and is continuing to ship and sell product. I also heard that during a demonstration of the Mentor device it BROKE. Now they have alot of money invested in this device and a total failure and angry shareholders, hence the lawsuit. You should look into buying MSON which has come down in price due to jitters over the lawsuit. I am told it is completely without merit and once this is heard by a judge and the case thrown out MSON will explode......check out the MSON thread and do your own research.....and PLEASE whatever you do, dont put your blind trust in a broker whose sole purpose in life is make his paycheck by selling you stock. They will tell you whatever they have to to push what their firm is pushing and make their commisions. Best of luck......;^)
