I understand what you're getting at.

I think ppxnouse was trying to point out that if iRex had shut down because of a drop in sales due to a premature announcement, there would have been no further iLiad firmware improvements, no more iLiad repairs, and no new DR series at all.

However likely it was or wasn't in this particular case, doesn't necessarily dictate how the iRex marketing folks might have seen the situation, and they're the ones who get to make the call in such situations.
