Once again, everyone wanted an update, so we have the written part of it, and the second part will be the presentation after market close.

There's a whole spectrum of feelings about our update so far.  Not sure who bumped the share price up?  Likely us, but who knows.  That's why I would really like for it to remain green and get greener tomorrow, those of us who bought more have likely shot our wad for this particular event.

Rainer made a comment last night about the VCSEL being optimized; I think I can see where he came up with that, but it doesn't jive with the overwhelming clamor about the VCSEL over the last two or three years.  If his conclusion is correct, where is the bump in price, the sales, the deals with others - what a perfect way to raise cash - license the tech behind the VCSEL.  Perhaps we'll hear about something like that very soon.

Another alternative to an optimized VCSEL is that it is as optimized as they can get it, but not sufficiently to have other companies falling over themselves trying to get at it.  Some more light might well be shed on that topic at the presentation today.
