Yep, clearly he could have not released this at a worse time... well maybe a year down the road would be worse considering projections on where we are headed... yes, I think it will get much worse, I don't don't think we are near the bottom yet.

However, while doing R&D on this phone, there was no way he could have predicted what was to come. And he couldn't just not release if for 2 years or so. It is what it is. And I'm sure Grado along with all other companies will be hurting in sales.
