Hey Clifford.  Not sure why it is "interesting" that your question didn't get answered.  Lots of posts a day and some get over looked.  You are not the only person posting!! Are you insinuating a deliberate attempt to dodge the question?  I find that difficult to believe

POET don't intend to be a manufaturer, no! Silterra do the manufacturing of the interposer, POET has a testing facitlity in Singapore, from there they go to SuperPhotonics (Sanan) for assembly. Of course this is largely for the Chinese market.  As I understand it, we will work with european and US  partners for these markets.  Suresh, I believe (correct me if i'm wrong), has talked about 'cutting out the middle man' when it comes to transceivers and becoming a manufacturer of them.  But no firm plans there as far as we're aware.

Does the POET management even know the answer themselves?  Yes of course they do!!

I might be reading you incorrectly.  But you appear to be suggesting managment are duping us somehow.  If so, do you really believe this or are you just trying cast doubt?
