I doubt many expected any news or announcements to come from the EC session today. I think many of us hoped / believed some news would come ahead of Dr. Taylor's speech earlier this year and when it didn't the SP fell back. The real significance for both is that POET has been invited to be present at each of these. The recognition for Taylor to be invited to share his invention at this venue is huge. For AM to be introduced with his POET credentials and placed beside Google is huge. THAT is the news. Yes, we're all speculating that something is going on behind the scenes but for them to be seen together so prominantly at such a high profile public event out of sheer coincidence may be even wilder speculation.
