To what end? Not enough information for speculation. One of the nice things about HN discussions is that generally folks who comment have some line of reasoning that leads to their opinion. Unless someone was actually working at uBeam and a confidante of Perry, what ever they speculate is useless. And if they are an employee and confidante, what ever they say will no doubt lead to at least the end of their position and at worst legal action.<p>And the really relevant point is that uBeam hasn&#x27;t, according to its current press, pivoted into anything other than its stated mission. So debating why not is like debating why you didn&#x27;t ask out someone back when you were in high school and now has turned out to be someone you didn&#x27;t expect. Kind of a waste of time :-)
