Mark V- You suddenly appeared to yell "fire" to scare people. Now you are continuing when most of them see no evidence of a fire. Valence is not in "dire" financial need. If you analyzed the capability of their production, you should be able to conclude, as I have that they should have been able to more than break even with their first, (low speed) production line alone. If they were worried about surviving, they wouldn't have purchased enough laminate capacity for ten production assembly lines or place more on order. Isn't the 4th assembly line expected in NI in September?

You state how the R&D budgets of larger companies dwarf Valence. You should keep in mind that Valence licensed technology from Bell Labs (Bellcore) a few years ago which gave them a tremendous head start. The size of Valence's R&D budget is no longer so relevant because they are now gearing up to mass produce the result of their years of R&D.

You also seem in direct opposition to the opinions of Don Wolanchuk. I understand he has been a guest market monitor at least four times on Nightly Business Report and has won the Market timer of the year award 3 times straight. He recently visited Valence's facilities and witnessed the automated production himself. Why should we be so quick to discount Don's opinions in favor of yours? I have acquired more Valence recently because I believe we are finally getting close to what we have waited a very long time for.
