Weren't you supposed to tape out in the first week of October???
Does this mean you're one month behind schedule?
EDIT: And... he's gone without answering the most important question of all. LOL. They were online when I posted this reply.
Just tabbed to another window, you sure are fast!
We have been expediting every part of the production and manufacturing process to compensate for the delay in tape out. A lot of preparation was also done based on the feedback from our mock tape out, and these efforts are all to minimize the lead time. We estimate that we are still on schedule for our communicated delivery times.
Well sorry if this sounds rude but we have all heard many many times how companies are on track. Nothing seems to affect delivery time until well it's delivery time pretty much, then we hear how hard it is to make/manufacture rigs and the excuses start rolling in.
