Michael, I haven't the foggiest as to where or when the interview took place. But of course, we would not have known of the impromptu interview with Dennis, if he had not posted the details(thanks again).

On the previous subject, I think the form or flexibility issue could be just a quibble. The form factor is probably dependent on aspect ratio(area/thickness) of the battery. It's possible that cellphone batteries, being small, are less flexible, but I haven't done the calculations, yet. Don't you think it's interesting that the matter really seems to hinge on price and delivery volume? Sounds like negotiations are getting serious. Think how far this has come in the last 6 mos.

Rumor has it that the interview was early last fall. Also, don't know when the interview with the Motorola fellow was, but if the second line (the initial Arcotronics line) was only delivered and set up just prior to the analysts' visit on 12/3/98, and Valence would take 30-45 days to fine-tune the line and test the batteries produced internally, it is very possible the at the time of the interview Mr. M. had not received any of the Arcotronic line's output at all...
