Opportunityknocks,

Most here will accept negative statements about the Company providing the authors back their views up with evidence or make a rational case for their premise, but too often posters just vent their fraustrations display their anger or dissappointment, which helps no one and leads to rabble rousing, there's another place where that's acceptable but not here.  Since we are all invested to see our shares do well its logical that there is more tollerance of enthusiastic statements but do we really need a health warning to be made to be wary of this.  There are risks and thats that - just be aware of them.

Although many castigate previous management for their up beat statements, I personally don't believe they were deliberately made to decieve  shareholder but reflected a postive enthusiastic interpretation of the discussions and developments they wre involved in at that time.  Only time and retrospective analysis can show that those plans just did not work out.  A consequence of this has been silence from Management and a different approach to PR.  I find it interesting that we are moving past that stage and feel this is possibly because management is more confident about their diccussions and the business relationships that they have built up during the 'silent' period.  This is why they now are showing afar more upbeat and realistic assesment of where the company is and when there will be a move to commercialisation.  I like Lumenge's notion of accelearting commercialisation and a partner is needed for that. 

Thinking back to 2015 considering the lack of structure, development facilities and manpower we were skating on thin ice particulalry as things went wrong almost immediatly with the business plan re the Anadigics drama and the difficult integration development itterations, which fingers ccrossed, we now appear to be through.  I should reserve judgement until after the AGM and presentations but surely we have much to happier with today than in Sep 15 and I remaing content to be invested albeit with a much more realistic understanding of what can be achieved given the capital issues and the hope that DL and the new products perform as expected.  

All roads may lead to POET but we now know that that the journey and distances are far greater than any of us imagined.  To benefit from this investment you have to take the long view, there is no get rich quick as we all once hoped, but then that cammot be written off.  

Yes risk is still there but consiserably less than when I poured all my savings in 5 years ago.  I remain positive and fully invested and eager for todays opportunity to assess the situation.
