Titan Medical Inc (TMDIF)

First, I am not familiar with the medtechy board you are referring too so the answer is no. I waste just enough of my time on this board and that is too much.

As for the question about the difference b/t arms and the end effectors, my first thought was a little disbelief that investors wouldn't know the difference but I've now come to believe that not everyone does the same due diligence as others.

There are parts of Titan that will be inserted into the patient, will then be taken out, sterilized and reused again (arms, camera housing unit, etc) - according to today's announcement, they will be manufactured by Cadence. There are also end effectors that are used to cut, suture, staplers, etc and do whatever else is needed in surgery that will be disposable (that is the worldwide supplier). They are two different companies. there is a difference b/t Surgical Instruments and Multi-Articulating instruments. Re-read thru the 2 different press releases and it should make sense, if it doesn't, I can't help you.
