Karl,
<In addition to much improved sales, BLTI is also taking US orders for Millenium - prior to FDA approval.>

That's not quite right. The Millenium is FDA approved for soft tissue. It is not, however, approved yet for hard tissue. Without FDA approval, the company is restricted from promoting the equipment for hard tissue use. They can promote and sell it to dentists for soft tissue.

The interesting thing about that, though, is that once a dentist has the equipment, there is nothing to prevent him/her from using the Millennium for hard tissue.
