Jacques, I have to admit being skeptical that vlnc was the supplier of the phosphate battery to the Xplore tablet pc for the fact that one of its main offices were in Toronto, same as Electrovya's headquarters, who also announced the availability of phosphate cells along with the introduction of their own tablet pc, but after visiting Xplore's webpage today I'm more convinced that vlnc is the supplier given that Xplore's ODM is Wistron. Given the recent Jag rumor, hopefully, a 1st tier oem notebook order is close at hand. Link to Xplore's partners website... xploretech.com
