For some reason your comments are being flagged for moderation and I can't respond to them. Maybe something to do with the link formatting? I can't tell.

I am not hurt by not being "on the radar." Trust me. However I will tell you what I've said before: I am a firm believer in the need for long-term solutions and if Poet turns out to have the key to a long-term solution, that's a wonderful thing.

I will note, however, that being stuck on 100nm is an unacceptable alternative for better performance in a microprocessor. You can't port a modern 20nm chip back to 90nm without a dramatic size *increase* with knock-on effects for power consumption, device size, signal propogation, and current draw.

It's not enough to be 10x-100x faster than CMOS. Whatever technology we shift to must enable functionally better chips on equivalent process nodes. In this case, (so long as we're talking microprocessors), I'd say to call me when POET has hit at least 40nm. Because at that point, it might be worth building high-performance CPUs in a new configuration at a higher node. But 90nm? No one is going back to those sizes for consumer electronics -- particularly not when the push is in mobile, where every square millimeter matters.
