I just received an email response from Xybernaut. Because of the lack of any press mentioning early sales/backorders/production, (properly termed by Xybernaut as "management projections"), I was beginning to wonder if there might be an alterior reason for the silence. I don't like to quote directly, but I've been noisy enough that I'll pull an excerpt from the Xybernaut response to some of my questions: >>>There is a backlog. Production is moving well. >>>No Siemens line yet. >>> >>>Product will initially be shipped to vertical >>>targets, analysts, press, etc., although an >>>occasional consumer will likely wind up with one. This is the info I sought. Production ramp-up is in the early stages, which explains this particular deafening silence. Beats the heck out of my growing concern of "product available, but no interested buyers", which would be the other reason for a silence. From this, it sounds like the MA-IV is on track to reach critical mass. I might be able to wait for management projections now. Shoe.
