I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble, but I'm not sure it is necessary
for Tony to be giving out samples at this time.  We've got to give our chip
back to him, and I'm sure he doesn't have the time to be shipping prototypes
all over the country to individuals.  I agree, Andy is a well respected
person, but Jawaid and I have been talking to Tony through most of this
project, and just plain got lucky.  Besides, the chip will become a reality
soon enough, Tony is more that capable of seeing this thing through.

So chill!!! :-)
