I got the same message today from IR: I apologize for the delay in responding to your email. I received an answer today that I am able to share with you. Here is a quote that Mr. Ron Abelmann, President and CEO, issued at yesterday's H&Q Conference: "T2 has never been part of our Q1 revenue plan. Based on customer input, we decided to postpone the shipment of T2 to the week of May 3 so that we could make another revision to the code. We felt the delay in shipping from the 22nd of April to the week of May 3 was worthwhile". I just wish they would have put out the above as a news release on April 22 to prevent speculation and negative spin. In hindsight, with Abelman resigning, I can see why they didn't. I kind of hate to see them put in a date certain (by Friday, May 7)now. I'd rather see early part of second quarter, unless they are 100% certain about the release date. With only a couple of week delay, it must be an extremely minor change, but with software, you never know. I suspect that the software will be better for the change, but that it will probably also benefit from other changes down the road.
