Hoya is thinking margin, which is the right thing to be thinking in a global depression, when you aren't going to make it up on volume no matter what you do, and being pessimistic about exchange rates and the Yen. Pretty much every tech company in Japan got hammered in 2008 by the exchange rates. Still rather sucks for the foreseeable future, but at least it improves their basic odds of survival. -- Graydon -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
