Mr Routhier.
I have no idea anymore what to make of you.
I would not consider today`s blog a blog but at least you talk about SIO and 3DGo.
I am writing this letter as a personal letter to make sure there are no misunderstandings.
You asked for feedbacks to your “‘blog”,what do you mean ?, your dates are mixed up, your numbers are still low, still no clarity as to what our business plan is anymore, 3DGo it`s pushing-helping the sale or introduction of the SIO Hi=-Fi package and so far has not been doing good,so my feedback has to be negative to conservative at best.
I thought that by having almost all Major chip manufacturers embed our chip on almost all new TVs since almost two years ago things would have been different now.
The only consistent thing still is your tenacity and force to try to make this work without any outside help and by the looks any inside help either.
Where do you start to complain and make suggestions ?.
You again with the stroke of a pen and two sentences postponed the launching of Panasonic-3DGo from a 4 month sure deal to a nine month possible deal, that`s a huge delay, meaning the Holiday sales we were expecting were delayed hopefully till the end of next May, why ?,I don`t really understand your excuse.
That means the start of Summer and another few months delay till people gets in the mood of seating at home watching TV, the urgency won`t be there.
Also by that time it would mean that Starz-Big Picture-National Geographic would have been around for almost two years with almost nil revenues, and Disney –Paramount 15 and 16 months, and Universal over 9 months.
I don`t know the terms of a renewal from a Disney and Paramount deal will look, since we have not showed any significant revenues to justify such a deal, but I imagine you`ll do your best, you have some money now, but a piece of advice, do not spend it too fast or carelessly because next time it will be much harder to get,and as far as dilution forget it we are maxed up.
I had to go back and reread the Report from RG on November 13th and funny thing again he did not mention the Panasonic-3DGo deal as a soon catalyst,which brings me to the conclusion that he already knew but you waited another month to let us know.
Since we are there why don`t you clear your throat and tell us once and for all the real deal we have with Hisense and TCL ?.
It would really help the shareholders morale, not that you care .
So another uneventful Holiday Season coming up with no sure or concrete revenues coming.
You must have a poker face to show up again at the CES 2014 and talk about 3DGo, Hi-Fi and Autodetect and now add the joining of forces to work with 4K and glassless 3D.
ON the other hand you and cronies will need a vacation by then and that makes sense.
Again I will save something for my next one.
Still on the last year we have lost around 75% value, our BOD still as pathetic as ever and it would be nice to know how Sir Richard is doing, having not heard from him since June, hope he is ok.
In spite of all this I wish you, all SIO workers and families a Merry Christmas and a Better Happy New Year.
