Actually they have not told me that helicos is an alternative.. None of the scientist spoke about it... I am assuming this is because of what you guys tell me here..
I just stumbled upon the helicos technologies and wondered why etc...
As I said: I try to understand the techniques too.
And yes, its possible we will wait even longer.. this is also why I (and others) are taking our time in making a decision. Especially because it does look like that sending samples away, and let a third party sequence it, might be even cheaper...
Its just simple really: its because of my own interest I am learning about these technologies. Its not me, that will make the scientific decision.
