"A company would be foolish to invest 1.5 billion and have negative cash flow for years from the transaction."

UNLESS, that company is SAMSUNG, is trying to corner the FLASH MARKET, has a bid to acquire SANDISK, just said its profits dropped, (what was it? 34%), has had a long relationship with EDIG and knows what it is getting, and has a lot of cash which makes 1.5. billion chump change for them.
