As discussed before,MDT likes to get a company that is nearly finished with all the 'pushups' so there is little risk for any delays for cash flow. They did this with MZOR Digital Surgery,and XENT..TMDI is quite a ways off for cash flow and carrying cost add up by the day.If you couple that with their own seen delays with USA Hugo,I'd imagine that issue has been mumble over before with MDT Board..jmho-but we are talking real $$ here and not chump change.Realistically TMDI could be years away from first sale and that is everything goes flawless with FDA Full Approval.I am optimistic but just stating why they have not rushed to pull the trigger yet...I always remember what ISRG CEO stated in the past about not worrying about a new competitor as he states," Getting Full Approval and Launching is just the start of all the work" -meaning it takes a lot from that point forward to see real $$ build.Jmho, Thanks Roll
