"Also don't think Intel would be mentioned were EDIG only delivering but a few hundred prototypes. " Sure they would. I think most any OTC-BB company worth their salt would. The whole idea of name-dropping is to leverage the slightest connection into something that it isn't. But let investors connect the dots. Let them "figure it out" themselves. As long as you allow investors to connect and dots and reach their own speculative (but perhaps untrue) conclusions, you never lied to them. I think that if there was more to it, they would be more explicit. Sure, it's a feather in their cap to have an Intel reference design. Somebody might even go with it, for the first few thousand units. Then comes the cost-reduction, and it's bye-bye EDIG. Yes, Intel needed EDIG. Cheaper than developing their own reference design. And EDIG gets to name-drop Intel, and gets to hope (and, perhaps more importantly, let investors hope) that they can worm their way into some consumer products. Problem is going to be to extract the royalties needed to support their highly-inflated stock price from highly cost-sensitive manufacturers. Good luck!
