I have often wondered if the reason the "low hanging fruit" was never captured was because POET's platform allowed the low hanging fruit to be skipped over so easily.

Why would mega data centers bother with the smaller/slower versions of the OE when they could go for a more advanced model in a relatively short timespan and leapfrog years of development time in the first step?

This seems to be the most logical answer to the low hanging fruit question.

As for the AGM, I agree, it should be held in person; put it in your calendar now, you can't be too busy to inform the people who have paid your salaries for the last decade or more and helped you get to this point.

The alternative will not be well received.
