And to this nice finding of disco: Wow!!! You will not need such a position for a buch of SLEDS from DL., right? Sounds like  significant volume of production is planned, for GaAs or InP products - all is welcome!

External manufacturing - this reminds me to a project for IC-packaging in Vietnam...

If POET will need further funding for production rampup - they could count on me. Some people are only seeing the pure dillutional effects of PP or PO - but raising funds is part of the game to build a company, like an option plan is the way to finance management.

But it should be done in the right - professional way. I hope Mika can do.
Issuing tradable warrants with a limited validity is the way I would do that!
