Look at IMDS's previous distributors
30-40 announced over the past decade. Big announcements, but then nothing ever happens. Look at the most recent China distributor. Disappeared too.
Look at the Mexico "sale" announced a Nov 2011 delivery date, but it still to this day has not been delivered.
Look at IMDS's Italian distributor. Bought a unit and then ended up suing IMDS.
Canada-- distributor "bought" a unit, but it turned out that the "purchase" was actually a loan.
Take a good look at IMDS's regulatory approval chart. Looks good that they have approval in a lot of places, right? Look how many instances of "expired" are on that list. Approval of a lifesaving device expired????
What the current group of shareholders are seeing are big announcements with big fanfare. Some of us have been here for a decade or more. We've seen dozens of these things come and go.
"This time will be different"!!!
