Great info on the MOT flat panel COLOR display! But where is TFS with their many shades of grey? Still out behind the barn, methinks!
Their big push into China is going to allow them to produce zillions of gadgets for MOT at only a small loss per gadget. BFD! The only promise of anything for shareholders is that somebody will buy them up for the price of a fancy home in Newport and a small yacht.

Hi Rick:

Those MOT units are nice. Note that they require 2 watts of power to operate. I think I remember the TFS people talking in terms of milliwatts or some very small amount of power for their grey scale units.

Re TFS's phone with the Silliscape viewer: that display we saw at the shareholders meeting was a dead image ... a dummy. Very cool. I am wondering who, Silliscape or TFS or the phone maker is going to do the electronics to bring that image into the real world. Anyone heard anything on this score. That viewer is also going to require a fair amount of memory to be of any use, along with computing power to make any sense of it, and all that has to be added to the basic phone hardware.

Thanks to all our Vets this fine Memorial Day.
