RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:info requiredAves you need to broaden your understanding of what POET is and really how long it takes to be successful.
I heard Lee Shepherd use phase change technology as an example of great technologies that don’t come along that often. IBM today is still working to make phase change memory a reality. And there has been a huge amount of investment made in this by companies like IBM. And they are still working on it.
You have always and I do mean always failed to grasp the reality of how long it could take as most of us have. In relative terms POET as a technology platform is being developed at facilities that have the capacity to make it happen. It is a complex epi stack. Geoff spent 30 years of his life developing it. He took it as far as he could and so did previous management. You say PET has failed. It just speaks to your lack of understanding of what POET is and where they are now in the order of priorities of the POET platform development.
Is PET being developed as we speak under NDA?…it is possible. But POET in my opinion is not putting resources to work on 90% of what the POET platform is. The 10% they are working on would be more than enough to make POET a successful technology with a significant disruption to optical integration in the Datacom space.
PET is dead… I highly doubt it. It is going to take some very serious money and effort to develop the other 90% of POET so try to understand why Suresh has chosen to take this route. It seems pretty clear.
