A "second" settlement even if it is just a little company like Vivitar would be great, but unless I'm missing something here I don't get how an extension to let Vivitar out and the new company's attorney take over, equals a settlement??? It says they are "attempting" to reach a settlement. R.P. gave me the impression that this was almost a "dead deal." I would like to be corrected though, anyone??? mguru (p.s. I would hope for another settlement soon, but did not get the impression (after the landmark first one), that there would be another real soon? Also, GREAT FIND silversurfer!!!)
