well who knows really - but this below sounds worrisome

Clive has a list. A list of people that says he’ll see to it won’t get a MinIon when it comes out. I can’t tell if he’s joking.

that only makes sense if they do not actually have a product to sell and if they are still operating with the mindset of having to raise more investment rather than demonstrate the feasibility of the product.
