Good morning Geoff,

I thought your arguments were exactly on target. One of the problems some people investors have is that they are technically sophisticated (from an engineering or electronics point of view) but lack even a rudimentary understanding of economics or finance. The surprise is that many high-tech businesses unfortunately suffer from the same short coming.

Arguing that declining ASPs per force is a death blow to the industry (while ignoring elasticity) is one such case. Another is the failure to truly understand the concept of "value added" by insisting that it must be something unique, and finally the failure to appreciate the fact that barriers to entry take a multiplicity of forms (not just proprietary technology).

Again, thanks for your well-informed, clearly reasoned posts.

TTFN,
CTC
