We have no clue that Apple has spent 300-500 million on BMG. And the timing was 3-5yrs, that would make it 2017.

We are 4-5yrs late already - does that mean they spent 1billion?

“For example, I estimate that Apple will likely spend on the order of $300 million to $500 million -- and three to five years -- to mature the technology before it can used in large scale. - Check”

At best that is a half check. I’m pretty certain that Apple hasn’t given any guidance on how much R&D money has been spent on BMG since 2012. That might be a half check, but we don’t know.

3-5 years from 2012 is 2015-2017, not 2021. Not worthy of a half check.

Apple glasses BMG.

Love your post. It’s all factual!

Liquidmetal doesn’t continue to lay in bed with Apple for nothing!

Liquidmetal didn’t come out and confirm they are pursuing CE for nothing!

LIQUIDMETALS TIME IS HERE!

Apple Will Use It In A 'Breakthrough Product'

Sorry if it was not understood, these predictions belong to Dr. Atakan Peker.

Interestingly, after "leaving" liquidmetal, he works as an amorphous metals consultant for another company in China: PometalTech (developing the ecosystem?)
