Right now I am planning to hold the stock for 13 years. Could be longer.

Thanks for the list of partnerships. Have any of them been discontinued?

I think the adaptation to the FSAN standard is newsworthy. Shows that BBTK does not have its head stuck in the sand and will adopt its technology to emerging standards.

The announcement of new product development would not be newsworthy were it not for BBTK's single-minded determination in the past to develop only the FLX technology. Now it is indicating that it will apply its technological know how to products with an existing market rather than wait for the high-end market it had anticipated. We'll have to wait to see how significant these new products are. The important point is that it represents a change in strategic direction for BBTK, and that is what the market wanted to see. It is not an immediate fix, there is none for BBTK, but it holds out the promise that BBTK will develop immediately marketable problems and move on its all too obvious weakness of quarter-to-quarter declining revenues. The market will give BBTK some grace period as it waits to see whether these new products are marketable.

Can't argue with your perception based on BBTK's past way of operating. But that is exactly the point, these shifts indicate that BBTK is not going to continue to operate the way it has in the past and that's what all the fuss is about.
