Yes, that's the very same link I posted on the Orbo Exposed (http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,2759.msg40599.html#msg40599) thread.
I won't say I believe in their claims, but they would surely be a bunch of very stubborn scammers if this whole matter ends being fake. :-\
Good interview. He seemed honest and open, and his general view on why things did not go well in the demonstration appeared plausible to me. Also the idea of setting up a demonstration machine at some location, and getting it working first, is a great idea.
At this point nothing has been proven or disproven. This is still a wait and see game.

Sorry, for the redundancy, Iosh. I checked to see if others had already posted this, but somehow overlooked your post. Seem to need some work on my checking skills....amongst other things.
Sean came across for me as very credible here. However, if they have patent protection already in place like he mentions in this interview, it would seem to me to be a wise move to share the simple "demo" version openly that others can replicate it
now. The suppression and secrecy makes one wonder as it looks so much like all the scams that we have experienced before.

Don't worry, I think this news is better located on a thread of its own. ;)
Sean looks quite honest about the subject, the same he has looked in every public appearance he has done. Sadly all we can do now is waiting until they broadcast their first "remote" demo over the web.
