  This is a funny distinction.  Surely JW devices come from the same
batches as OTPs?  Now, how do they test devices?  You can't test an OTP
device by programming it and running a program, can you?  Only by
sampling, because then you've cooked it.  Unless you "sample" test by
making QTP (note: I didn't say OTP that time!) devices for orders and
testing them, but then you have to know what the program is supposed to
do to see whether it is actually working or not.

  What am I rambling about?  Just seems to me that only JW devices could
be fully tested and characterised prior to shipment so whatever testing
OTPs get, it must be to a lesser spec anyway.  Have I missed something?
