Message: When?

Krom, at this moment, we, (PoET) is still working with initial ptototypes, which have to be test cycled, 2000 and 5000 hours respectively, before they are baked as 8" wafers. The equipment to produce wafers is now set up and ready at Silterra once the test cycle phase is complete. After the initial runs at Silterra, (again, to test reliability and consistency) interposer chips will be sent to Accelink and presumably Almae to test for compatability with their products and tech.

So, full production is a ways off yet. In terms of customers, Accelink is the only "customer" that we know of. Almae is a joint venture.

There is now a sense that there is a broad interest in the interposer chip. The word Suresh used was "humbling". So, once the testing is done and the wafer reliability is established, it would appear be a saleable product that will can be tailored to meet customer needs as required, thus the reference to bespoke clients.

It is always difficult to deal with "hurry up and wait" when the goal again seems close. There is, unfortunately, a bit more engineering to do yet before we get there.
