Personally, I like the economic and oil discussions as I do believe (WAG) the near term outlook should be good, if not even better.  That's good for EDIG and the market we play within.

I also think LL is right about the "we are not a mean ole copy cat" statement we'll see once they respond.  It's not likely they will jump on the table with a bag full of cash. 

I would like to have an idea of how much eVU business EDIG expects to bill in fiscal 08.  As I look back through the company updates I don't find hard numbers through the end of the year -- probably because they don't know which deals are solid and which need more hand holding. 

It is my guess that the Sept WAEA show produced some serious "lookers" with the 20 hour battery.  Obviously, the logistics become much less involved if the units do not need to be charged every other flight.  My WAG is THAT is a big deal to the airlines.
