That said Fair. I recall them saying the TDKs are(were) ready for their "entire library". That means to me that these ten components are able to be build into a single chip, not that they intend to build a single chip with all ten devices. If a cell phone needs 3 or 4 devices they have the ability to build it according to the TDK. I do not believe that there will ever be a need to have all ten devices incorporated so that an offensive laser is built into a cell phone while creating holographic images while streaming I love Lucy with the latest cad program running in the background. I believe 10 devices means just that. 10 pieces that could be implemented into a chip in whatever order to fit a customers proprietary needs. This will provide a maximal flexibility to create whatever type of poet chip for a given purpose. The limits and challenges will be discovered as a potential client orders a specific combination of devices and they proceed to build the prototype. This is where all of the time will get eaten up. Each prototype will take time to build and field test. We are still early in the game. I'm interested to see how many different prototypes they are working on at one time as they mentioned multiple focuses. Not just the 100nm. Not far now. Derekwpg
