FREMONT, Calif., March 8 /PRNewswire/ -- Avanex Corporation (Nasdaq: AVNX - news) announced today that it has completed a lease for an additional 91,000 square feet of space in a building that is adjacent to its headquarters and manufacturing facility in Fremont, which will nearly triple the size of the company's corporate offices and manufacturing space. At most they could have had some portion of 54,000 sq. ft up and running. (To do this they would have to be twice as fast SDL.)However hard it may be to focus in the midst of downward flight, I suggest that you steer your parachute toward its polychrome photonic trampoline, deployed in two buildings with close to 150,000 square feet of manufacturing space at Encyclopedia Center.But you can be assured that in those buildings, replete with some 450 animated Asian workers, you can find some of the most creative minds in all optics and the single most promising new product in the industry, the Avanex PowerMux or symetrical multiplexer-demultiplexer. . . at minimum exaggerated by a factor of 3. By posting the press release announcing the signing of the lease on the 91,000 sq. ft. addition my guess moves from supposition to fact. Not only do we now have 54,000 sq. ft. of total space but we somehow have to fit 450 workers inside.not the PowerMux so until we get another quarter report, we'll have to guess what percentage was the latter. I'll be generous and allow the exaggerated workers in the exaggerated space the job of working on the exaggerated product. Fair enough?
