You say Wave is selling security software instead of hardware, so the EMBASSY business plans are done.
That reflects a perfect misunderstanding of the EMBASSY business plans.
The original announcement of EMBASSY in the fall of 1998 was perhaps the clearest inflection point along the following path:

Wave never wanted to sell hardware.
Wave just wanted to get the hardware out there.
On the client side.
Because Wave wants to do things with that harware.

Wave was never in the chip business.
Wave just wanted to get the chips out there.
On the client side.
Because Wave wants to do things with those chips.

Now the hardware -- those chips -- are getting out there.
On the client side.
Nothing's over.
Something's starting.

We'll see whether Wave participates.
On the client side.
On the server side.
Throughout the ecosystem.
