I don't have a lot of faith in or respect for Naveen Jain.
Amen!
I wouldn't be surprised at all if he pulled the plug on SI with no warning whatsoever.
When/if it gets shut down, that's the way it's going to happen.
INSP is getting out of everything but the wireless business, last I heard. My understanding is that they're keeping SI around only because they think they can license the technology elsewhere.
Got a news flash for them. The technology is worthless and there are too many good competitors already in that space. Yours truly will be joining that fray later this year.
They've got a good interface. Can't really fault them on that. But it's slow, terribly inflexible, and likely almost impossible to maintain, let alone tweak for deployment elsewhere.
That said, I wouldn't think it'd be costing them that much to keep it alive. A little bit of hardware and a few salaries. I can't see any good reason for them to shut it down as long as they can afford what it costs. And I think they can.
But they probably could've afforded my salary, too, so it's really tough to predict just what they'll do with it.
