As noted in the articles, these guys have played their cards closer to the vest than Steve McQueen in "The Cincinnati Kid". In spite of a considerable calling in of markers I have not been able to gain any consequential penetration.

The one thing I do hear is that it is a real darling with respect to power consumption. In the past we've heard similar exaggerated claims that have not proven accurate once the products hit the field, but I suspect this dickens may deliver. If it does, the portable/notebook/hand-held box builders will be delighted, as operating durations may jump substantially. Like you, I'll be a very interested spectator to their coming debut.

Best, Earlie
