spoke: The answers to your questions.
Brad said that the 20% difference is all the difference in the world. I am just taking his word for it. Those were not his exact words, but the gist of what I remember.
Adaptive engineers have during the last 24 months completed the PowerStream™ core, and are now working to complete Embarq. You misquoted in one of your later posts, and in this post after the quote, that they are now working on Embarq. That isn't what is said, but apparantly you read it as such. They have COMPLETED Powersteam and are working on COMPLETING Embarq. They aren't just starting to work on it. They have been working on it along with Powerstream, have completed Powerstream, and are now working on completing Embarq.
Of course a % in royalties matters in net profit (although this is old news), but I thought we were discussing control of the technology. i.e. who owns it.
I would like someone to answer the following:
If Rim owns 100% of the rights to use the tech, and if they can perform at the levels they have stated, and if they can sell the product to a ready market, then how does any of this discussion change anything that we have believed in the past about what our investment is worth?
