I already clarified it. I said that what I thought was interesting was the change in attitudes over a two week period. It has yet to be explained to me in any believable fashion, other than by their lawyer, who seemed to me to be completely full of beans in any case – but he is NOT NewTek, and I am well aware of that. I feel that their expression of interest, followed by a VERY delayed "no, not interested, doing similar stuff" is still an indication of something – not theft. The lawyers "You had better shut up, or else" was asinine, clearly nothing beyond a threat which he could not back up. Apparently, Tim Jennison feels that he has to do business this way. It's my personal opinion that lawyers are the last resort of the incompetant. So, let me state, for the record and for all to see/read: I am not, and have not, stated that NewTek "stole" anything from me/black belt. They have every right to choose what they will or will not support. The marketplace will vindicate or bury them, as appropriate, just as it does all the rest of us. In the meantime, we DO have support from many other vendors, well established ones with FCC approved digitizers.
