Cass, based on what you presented, there was no evidence to back up your claims.
As it stands, my post clarified that your assumptions were indeed correct.
My posting of RP's email is the definitive and last word on the subject. The fact that you used old PRs from 1999 and 2000 made we question the validity of your statement.
So the issue as been settled to my satisfaction, however, RP did make the point of first generation products, which indicates that VoiceNAV could later be incorporated should Fujitsu-Ten so desire.
