The Wiretap Intercept No. 060508
opinions and skeptical speculations too small to fit into an Industry Gadfly column

I laughed this morning when I read the pathetic debut of OneSpin Solutions GmbH
in EEdesign.com.  From the story, OneSpin is a bunch of Munich engineers from
Infineon and Siemens who made their first product (which appears to be yet
another property checker) and "sold" it (surprise! -- who would have guessed?)
back to their old friends at Infineon and Siemens.

What's funny here is that the OneSpin people now have the balls to claim in
this story that "our technology has been field-proven" all because their old
work buddies say it is.

This is like my mom saying that *I'm* cute and that "any girl out there would
be very lucky to be with me" because I'm a "good catch"!

I'm sure if I asked, my mom would be willing to put this "news" out in a press
release.  Now if only I could get the same people involved in this pathetic
OneSpin debut to handle my mom's story "authenticating" my machismo...  :)
