Just to clarify one of your statements. Not touching the rest...lol. Everyone is entitled to an opinion.

Shash> At this point, the MOU is to test and evaluate prototypes.

The MOU is to test and qualify as per the facts laid out in the news release:

As "preferred co-development partners," the MOU outlines a path for mutual co-operation with the objective of developing, qualifying and selling a family of transceiver products based on Poet's low-cost, high performance optical interposer platform.

Poet will be providing engineering samples of its optical engines to Accelink on a preferred basis for internal testing and initial qualification.

In other words one would have expect that Accelink have already evaluated alpha prototypes as would be expected to move forward with product development.
