        Dear John, 
        
          
        
        Eventually, yes, but 
        not right now.  We hope to get the first commercial unit ready for 
        production about a year from now, at about 2.5 KW.  Also, we plan it to 
        be modular, so one can "gang" groups of them.  And develop the 
        synchronizer simultaneously.  Hence 4 such units ganged and synchronized 
        would give a 10 KW unit.  For the second generation (perhaps a year 
        later), we hope to have a basic 10 KW unit, also modular.  At that time, 
        with ganged four of them we could have a modular 40 KW unit available. 
        
          
        
        But there's still a 
        year's very hard work before we are ready to market a unit at all.  The 
        first ones will be placed on the market in a foreign country, where the 
        research is now being done.  That should be about a year from now. 
        
          
        
        Best wishes, 
        
        Tom
