Sad, but I tend to think you're probably right. Very tough to speculate though. The product seems to be pretty far along in terms of the R&D aspect. Now it comes to when it can actually be built. I would think you'd need to be at that point before even moving into a beta testing process. The question is when can production begin to resume at some of these chip facilities that experienced damage.
