    Hi, this is Baxter.

    1. When will the new Duet launch?
    2. How much will each reload cost?
    3. Is it on Tri-Staple only?
    4. If the answer to #3 is "yes", what color/staple heights and jaw lengths will it be on?
    5. If the answer to #4 is "no", I guess the question is the same.

    Thanks.

    Dear Baxter Healthcare Trolls,

    We're sorry, but we only answer questions (like those posted above) from bonafide medical device companies. We were unaware that you are engaged in the production and marketing of medical devices. It has been our understanding that you are a pharmaceutical company.

    Please go away.

    Sincerely,
    Everyone at Covidien

    Dear Everyone at Covidien,

    No, no, no. We sell devices! It says so right in our catalog. That makes us a device company. Do you know how complicated it is to attach a spray tip to the end of a Tisseel syringe? Prior to that, we have to be there for the whole case so the staff understands how to thaw the Tisseel. Frozen = bad; warm = good. Phew, I'm tired just explaining it here.

    p.s. What does "bonafide" mean?

    Dear Baxter,

    You are a joke of a company that has suddenly found itself in the deep end of the pool. Water wings will not help, you need to head back over the kiddie pool where all of the other drug companies swim.

    Now, do you want to see a magic trick? OK, here it comes...

    ****POOF!!!****

    Your Peristrip business just disappeared!

    Congratulations! Now, head back to the kiddie pool!

    Dear Gore,

    Should we let Covidien know our companies are co-developing buttressing for clip appliers and hernia fixation devices?

    Just launched in Japan. ~$150 higher than Tri-Staple.
