6 Medical Device Makers Poised for Growth [view article]
And one more thing, "Among the medical community, it is believed that the Sensei system is better, as well as being cheaper."You based this on your "neighbors" opinion, not the medical community. Cheaper? Really? The system is cheaper but the procedure cost are MUCH higher.
Insulting readers by calling them "Pumper" and "Bashers" is beyond childish and if you had facts to back up your statements this wouldn't have occured. Very irresponsible on your part, and I will be contacting your boss. May 12 09:24 PM

Basher? Pumper? What kind of nonsense is this? Please don't do articles if you can represent factual information. You did no research, refuse to acknowledge you are wrong, and its very apparent everyone else that has responded to you knows more on the subject matter.Please spare us from your drivel in the future.

Wow, now you are changing your point. I don't own ISRG, I think its fully valued short term. But they are selling as many systems as they want right now. It has nothing to do with credit issues. So your point doesn't make sense.I am an open minded investor, and see no upside to Hansen unless they change their target market. And again, you are one of the typical Fred Moll worshippers that didn't do any research. He left ISRG in shambles, Lonnie Smith saved them. Hansen will have to change their target market just as ISRG did. So does your "neighbor" have access to a Niobe? How does he feel about a family member going under the knife with Sensei?
I don't care what position you have, or want to take. But its unfair to readers to have such limited knowledge of what you are talking about, but be so bold in your opinions. You made some extremely critical remarks in regards to STXS's market, none of which is even remotely close to being accurate.

Thomas,Point 1. Fred Moll left Intuitive Surgical in shambles, they almost had to claim bankruptcy. It wasn't until Lonnie Smith stepped in and redirected their target market that they became successful. How much research did you do?
Point 2. Have you read the recent clinician reports on Hansen? Look up Natale (a former Hansen supporter). There is a serious disconnect in wall street and the clinicians. Stereotaxis's backlog has shown tremendous growth without their irrigated catheter. If it had not been for JNJ's delay they would be trading much higher.
Point 3. Lonnie Smith and Bevil Hogg among others have repeatedly stated that they are not seeing any credit crisis in their markets, so how do you argue? ISRG sold over 70 systems at a million a pop. So I ask how can you argue this? Where are you getting your information?
One last point, you said, " do not know how many of the core abstracts truely relate to the Niobe system and how many of them are good"
Then please tell us readers how you can make such biased statements directed towards Hansen and you have no idea how the medical community is responding to their system. I guess you haven't noticed that they aren't being utilized. Do a quick check on the Cleveland Clinic. Niobe being utilized 100% of the time....
I have saved your article and look forward to responding when JNJ clears up their irrigated catheter issue. In my honest opinion, you have done a poor job researching your topic.
