    Hmmm. Who knows.

    I could speculate a million different things but we wont know unless someone has the scoop.

        I just received an order from him this past week except a GT3B was back-ordered. Sent a couple of emails this week, but no answer yet.

                      He probably just had an emergency and will be back soon. It is tough to work a regular job and do this on the side and then be able to respond to everyone.

                        Not enough money to enforce patents in a domestic sense even, and forget about it in China. If you send something to China to be produced, consider it public property. They have no problem selling to you then turning around and selling to others.
