One more note about inventory. They said in the CC that the inventory increase was due to Thanksgiving and Christmas being a week closer together so they had to get an early start on the holidays. That's understandable.

Also, toward the end of the CC, they mentioned the Chinese New Year. It's starts on Jan. 25th which is a week and half earlier than last year, and it sounds like they are expecting their shipment before the end of q4. I'm wondering how much this will affect q4 seeing how q3 was affected. Maybe we will still have a decent but not incredible q4 followed by a pretty good q1 as well.

I'm not really sure as I'm not an expert at this stuff. I'd love to hear your guys' thoughts, but it's become more concerning to me after seeing the q3 ER.
