So let's make sure we have this straight. We supposedly have a "production" 3.0 release (3 major releases), but no production pricing scheme. That's pretty lame. Oh by the way - but things are looking really promising with our "no revenue" business plan. I feel we'll be lucky if we only lose another 70% of our value this year, because really there is no value. What do we have if not a product for sale? It's not for sale if there's not a price. What a load of shit.

...it seems Sigma are still deliberating about how exactly to quantify that price, be it machine time or units produced or vs a specific value of parts. Whilst not ideal this isn't yet defined...

This is exactly the case, just that it's true we need to see some pricing/assessment for the product, or if they are using it in some way, then they need to be taxed...

The way i read it if you are in EAP you get beneficial pricing for your EAP machine. The reason for this being the EAP machine is not bringing you revenue, and is for both sides to learn and adapt it to needs. Once you start serial production, regardless of being EAP or not then you will be charged a rate substantially different. From John Rice response it seems Sigma are still deliberating about how exactly to quantify that price, be it machine time or units produced or vs a specific value of parts. Whilst not ideal this isn't yet defined, it is encouraging that Sigma has options. This technology is in demand and every base case will be different. Each users demands, machine quota, needs etc will be different so there will be many options on the table with regards to pricing.
