I thinks that is first official confirmation that there is more than one interested party in T/O discussions, and don't beleive any other interested party would have been sought out by Origin. It takes two willing parties to discuss. My recollections from sales training is to welcome objection by way of price, as is demonstrative the buyer wants to buy, and is now left to rue the potential cost of not purchasing. I viewed today's ann. with a very positive outlook and am looking to top up on weakness. Should be an interesting short term.
