I have mixed feelings about this - I'm sure the tweets were a response to a large number of emails they received from panicking shareholders. I emailed them myself (not panicking, but with questions). Sending out a string of tweets is faster than answering 100 emails. There's also the added benefit of limiting rumors from so called copy and pasted emails from EPGL that show up on this board. Some might be real, some might be fake - a tweet comes straight from the company.
I think we should temper our enthusiasm about these tweets. I think it's great that there has been talk with apples IP counsel, but if history repeats itself, releasing Apples name might mean there isn't a deal. Last time epgl released a name it was google/ Novartis, and we wound up with a deal with a competitor. I like apple, but a deal with an apple competitor is huge as well.
I think all these deals are huge for a pinksheet company. Anyone downplaying the significance doesn't want to admit they were wrong or they want more shares. At the same time, EPGL needs to help develop a product with one of these partners for the stock to run. I think they will, in fact, I think the NDA with cooper was put in place so information wouldn't leak while they began jointly developing their technology. Let's be honest - why is a non-disclosure agreement signed? To keep a deal quiet so tech doesn't get leaked and/or to keep a failed attempt quiet so the market doesn't react. The development agreement is now public, confirmed by the company paying the bill and shouldering the risk of embarrassment that comes with partnering with a pink sheet company. Some how I think we would never have gotten the Cooper name if a prototype wasn't close.
