State officials seize InPhase assets in lieu of taxes

The lights are out - and for sale

Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Backup/Recovery

In a final emphatic demonstration that the money has run out, holographic storage developer InPhase's premises have been seized for non-payment of taxes by the Colorado Department of Revenue.

According to local reports, the state has changed the locks on the doors and announced that everything owned by InPhase, including furniture and fittings, would be sold at auction.

The 60 or so remaining staff were laid off last week, but the CEO and one of the company's investors were still hopeful of getting additional funding. This now looks distinctly unlikely.

Thanks to the Longmont Times for the information. ®

"everything?"

As in, including any Patents and other IP owned by InPhase??? Porbaly will fetch more than the physical assets by far... (and show up in a patent troll article here on El Reg in a few years).
