Re: CafePharma post- Regardless of whichever large company may be interested in developing their own "robot" you don't just wake up one morning and make that decision with the hope of rushing it to market. They too will have to worry about patent infringement during their developmental stage and most likely suffer the same angst Titan did causing them to shelve Amadeus. They also have to be FDA and CE Mark approved. If they haven't already begun the developmental process SPORT will already have been approved and on the market for a while by the time the big boys are anywhere near commercialization.

They will have more hoops to jump through because Titan and Intuitive both have patents that cannot be sidestepped. In effect Intuitive will help protect the market. Look how long it took to recover from Amadeus to develop SPORT. It did not happen overnight and as CUIN2 previously indicated Titan appears to have become a new company at that point.

Both Titan and Intuitive are evolving companies and you can be sure are not stagnant regarding evolving technology. They both have a huge head start which conveys advantage. As I have said before (IMHO) all have made a sound investment in TITAN that will pay off in time. Patience on our part is very important.
