Well said MakeME,
I agree its a waiting game at this point. I have told my self that I will not look at the day to day fluctuation, and know what the big picture is. We all know what is coming.
This is just taking a bit longer than we expected. This is a REAL company, things do not happen overnight. Give them the time they need to evolve the company and I believe we will all be well rewarded.
Just in case anyone forgot who Dong Feng is, here are some facts.
PS: We have deals with them, I think 3 to be exact. A pink working with a Fourtune 500 company, hmmmmmm......
