If you read the fine print you have to notify them before they give you a ship 
date or you are on the hook for those.   Calix is not good about providing ship 
dates and I don’t want to get caught on it.

At some point all of these manufacturers who are asking for two and three years 
of PO’s are going to get caught with a shitload of excess inventory.  A 
Purchase Order and Order Acknowledgement constitute a valid and enforceable 
legal contract.   So all this talk of “just cancel what you don’t want” is 
going to become just so much BS.
