MOTM

Please understand all this new activity in some cases has been quietly going on for MONTHS
between myself and others. I can't possible do all of this by myself, so there are about 5 other
folks pitching in at various levels of involvement. This is what I wanted MOTM to become: a
"design by committee" sort of thing, avoiding the old joke (a battleship is a rowboat designed by
committee).

There are many factors that by chance "lined up" over the last 2 months and then the end-game is
trying to show as much as possible at NAMM, even if it's a prototype (heck, many others show
EMPTY CASES at NAMM under glass displays).

Also, I have to 'fill the pipeline' for next year, and the reality is new module sales drive the
business forward. Although at some point you *have* to slow down or you have 70 different modules
and the nightmare of keeping up with all that diverse inventory.

I haven't "forgotten" the '130 or the '480. I also haven't "forgotten" the ~350+ module on
*current* backlog, either. In fact, the last 2 days I spent most of my time building '800s
(ZZzzzzz...).

And...there are modules still in R&D not mentioned (about 4 of them). SO already, next year looks
close to 12 new, shipping modules.

Lastly, I need to do all the R&D NOW while I'm on...errr.....sabbatical (cough cough) and have
the 'time'.
