BIPH on sale today. Here's some great DD from the RB poster "unknownfactor".

Here's the most interesting fragment of a long post of his (I verified all this for myself):

......Then to go the Medtronic web site, and review their analyst update of February 19th, and listen the audio re. product developments, and view slide 13 out of 17, you will see that they have said publicly they they will have an MRI safe pacemaker in 2005, and that after that, all pacemakers and ICD's will be MRI Safe.

Listen to previous interviews and filings of BIPH, they have long said that, if one of the three big pacemaker companies comes out with an MRI Safe solution of their own, the other two will then likely want to do a deal with BIPH.

.....Remember that Biophan is in a market where each of their customers is very competitive, and Biophan is likely under non-disclosures with all the companies it talks to in any seriousness. So Biophan cannot comment on what is actually going on.

In Biophan's most recent SB2 filing it said (note particularly third sentence):

"
Pacemakers
Exposing pacemaker patients to MRI creates risks and liabilities that can include fatalities. We have developed a solution that can substantially reduce these risks for patients with pacemakers, that can be affordably implemented by pacemaker manufacturers. We are in discussions with several manufacturers, and have received offers for exclusive licenses for which we
have proposed counteroffers which we believe are more in line with industry pricing, and providing an equitable return for our shareholders who have funded our research, given the improvements in product safety and marketing advantage that we are offering.

We believe that our pacemaker solution can provide our prospective licensees with the opportunity to increase their market share by offering safer devices, as well as reduce potential liabilities from continuing to offer products with known safety risks. Biophan's MRI-safe technology platforms
could make this possible in a way that requires minimal changes to existing product designs, minimal incremental cost for materials, and requires very minor modifications to existing product manufacturing processes. "

It a long post; but it establishes some very interesting parallels in what major medical device manufacturers are projecting and what BIPH is doing.

Some might consider it hype; but I personally believe this lengthy post is some great DD:
