Alan,
You mention that it takes more than technology to make a successful product introduction. That is very true. Has anyone figured out a theory as to where the energy comes from to drive the motor? Are the magnets depleted with time? I recall an earlier discussion about slowly taking the energy out of a magnet by introducing small pellets of iron into the original field. Work can be done on each one as it is allowed to enter the field and a process related to this might be capable of slowly exchanging magnetic field energy for mechanical work. Someone then linked to a toy accelerator that performed this function using steel balls and permanent magnets. The toy proved that this was possible in real life experimentation. A magician might be able to construct a magnet motor which uses a set of gears to slowly adjust the distance to the energy storage magnets as they are depleted. I am not saying that this is what is occurring in this case, but that it might be possible to work. It is apparent from the videos that the magnets surrounding the motor rotor are extremely powerful. I suspect that a great deal of energy is stored within the fields of the many units contained inside the motor.

It is difficult to work with him; and this is one of the primary reasons he still is not in the market though he's had this technology developed well enough to bring in funding for at least 15 years. There is some good talent coming forward to help him now, which will take the edge off of this weakness; but it is still a significant drawback. The motor will not be easy to replicate. Too many magnets, too easy to not get them just right. Though it could be good for an open license, the difficulty of replicating will make it less easy to have it go viral. I'm going to be working on a list of reasons why I think his motor is legitimate. However, it takes a lot more than just a working technology for the technology to be successful in going to market.
