>>plan to purchase 4/14; brought on-line 9/14; commenced shipping 12/15
It's a good thing every company doesn't issue three press releases whenever they increase capacity. The newswires would be swamped.<<

I went to the meeting today. What you say may very well be true. However, a few items caused me to raise my eyebrows.
Dr. Fann said words to the effect that no matter how fast they increase capacity the demand is growing faster. I would interject here that from what I heard today I would surmise that margins and REVENUES are looking very solid into the future. Fann said Kopn is even shipping there product to Japan. Guess Kopin is one of the few in their industry that can make that statement. Furthermore Fann said Japan will be the first to utilize broad band wireless telephone systems that would use products like Kopin's display effectively. The time frame being, if I remember correctly, early 2001. Europe to follow then North America around 2003ish. BTW, Dr. Fann qualified his projections stating that they could possibly occur six months earlier.

Guess the cameras will be the main outlet until then for their display.
