Hi Jim, I do not have a Bear Stearns account. Hence I have no access to Neff's reports, except what is quoted by the news media. There is nothing "odd" about a supplier losing an exclusive contract. It happens all the time. What makes it a bit unusual in this case is that the ClickWheel is the very element that is attributed to the iPod's fabulous success. Companies don't generally want to tamper with winning formulas [Coca Cola lesson]. Furthermore, to utilize Synaptics' capacative sensing technology in a similar ClickWheel might have certain legal consequences for Apple and its new partners. Sam
