Someone on the yahoo board pointed out this link:
spectrx.com

It's an analysis by Hambrecht and Quist of SpectRx, a competitor to CCSI. I also found a summary of the report at hamquist.com if you don't have the capability to read pdf files.

Here's an excerpt:
"In the United States alone, an estimated 1.7 million newborns receive at least one blood test to measure bilirubin. The worldwide market for
bilirubin testing is an estimated $180 million annually at an average of $10 per test. "

"SpectRx receives an average of approximately $2.00 for each disposable. With a potential U.S. market of 6 million tests per year, the disposable product addresses a potential market of $15 million. The measurement instrument should sell to the end-user for around $4,000 and make up the bulk of revenues for at least a few years. "

I believe that these are realistic numbers that should also pertain to CCSI. There is still, of course, a question of market share.
