The Previous PR reporting the stop shipment to three defense companies

for connection problems related to a wire bond issue could have been read as indicating ONE display was found with this problem, now we know it was, to a least one customer, a "few" failures out of "many thousands shipped." Many thousands shipped to one customer, this customer is customer #1 to whom displays are currently being shipped. "Many" means a large number. I have no idea what the requirements are for customer #3 and their need for a display that can handle "high environmental requirements". The only way his two statements make sense is if a Special Operator leaves his device in a hot car in the summer. Or, one can surmise, just being in Yemen or Syria is like being in a hot car in the summer. But I've never heard of heat causing system failures in these theaters with these devices before.

"As we announced during the first quarter, we received notifications to stop shipments from three customers pending a review of possible interconnect problems. Our investigation says that the three customers have a similar issue, but each resulted from different mechanisms. One customer had a few failures over many thousands of displays shipped. This was our largest display volume, largest runner.

And obviously the customer is interested in using OLED or safe to say you would not call that company a customer. That statement indicates that the customer is new to the device they are building or use a different display system in a currently fielded device. Neither of those possibilities give me the slightest inkling what the hell the device is he is talking about.


""The third customer has a very high environmental requirement that goes beyond our maximum rating. However, the customer is very interested in using OLED.
