Let's not get ahead of ourselves here mate...will just let nature take its course!
Bottom up analysis/valuation is always far better than top down from a credibility point of view also. I will also add that dealing direct to someone like Sonic alot better than appointing distributors to try to then get the end customers on board.
I see that Thirdwave Technologies announced a few weeks back that it has done a 'me too' deal like Genera's one with Sonic.
