Universities have these very creative, forward looking people who frequently aren’t bothered by whatever the legacy solutions are. We started out as being more controls and software focused, and we had a good hardware group, but it was a little more like university lab hardware. And they’re frequently going for blue sky research.

Conversions are mostly for the Prius, with a few for the Ford Escape/Mercury Mariner hybrid SUVs. At that point, we expect the aftermarket companies prices to have come down sufficiently so that their conversions will be attractive to owners of hundreds of thousands of hybrids already on the road. So far, most start as hybrids.
