Is MOT thinking beyond mobile phones for its VirtuoVue Display Module? I found this excerpt from the MOT/KOPN press release interesting: ''As a leading imaging and display silicon system solutions provider, we plan to incorporate Kopin's CyberDisplay active matrix liquid crystal display into Motorola's VirtuoVueQ(tm) Display MODULE, which will be available LATER THIS YEAR, a virtual display solution which includes display panels, required optics, control and interface circuitry and connections, as well as a backlight support,'' added Mr. Cheung. ''It is a fully functional 'plug-and-play' module solution that can easily and directly be plugged into an END CUSTOMER'S SYSTEM.'' [emphasis added] .......... MOT seems to want to sell the VirtuoVue Module to others: possibly to other mobile/land-line phone makers? other non-phone producers? Better for MOT to sell the Module to others than to have others develop similar alternatives by working directly with Kopin? Is this volume-selling of MOT's VV Module the basis for Fan's wish to make CyberDisplay the standard for small form factor display? If so, cheers for Mr. Fan and Kopin! I wonder whether this "work-with-one-company-then-have-that-company-mass-market-a-CyberDisplay-product-to-create-a-standard-in-company's-industry-or-related-industries" will work in the Kopin/Fuji relationship? If so, cheers again for Mr. Fan and Kopin! And to Kopin investors: WOW! Comments, anyone?
