Why is an expensive campaign that emphasizes V2 a good thing if everyone that wants one has already bought one? Does Ballard have any idea how many potential new customers there are? I would say that based upon the disaster in inventory management (what I have called hyping the stock price so insiders could dump shares)does not say much for Ballard's quantitative understanding of the customer market.

I can't believe the comment about share buy backs. It shows how little Ballard understands capitalism. If the shares are not worth buying to him, who the hell does he expect to buy them? TDFX sold 2 million shares for 23 dollars apiece and now they are not worth 9 dollars to him. Amazing.

For once the analysts and short sellers really had it right. Great spectacular technology and completely brain dead management.
