>>Is CRGN so desperate for liquidity...<<
Undoubtedly.

>>...that this was the best deal they could get?<<
I'm sure Roche are very happy indeed.

Consolidated revenues for 2007 are expected to range from $50 to $55 million and will likely be earned almost exclusively by 454 Life Sciences. CuraGen's consolidated net loss for 2007 is projected to range from $65 to $70 million, with 454 Life Sciences anticipated to achieve a net income of $1 to $3 million for 2007...

>>Well crap.<<
Just about sums it up for me.

Well Crap! Is right. Sold the last of my CRGN. Gosh this is sad. What can Roche possible offer for 454? Deep pockets for research, but this kind of stuff needs real creativity. Does this mean ILMN needs another look? Why? Kind of dribbling nostalgia here.......sorry.
