If I am not mistaken (and I could be), the developer of TMS has moved on and is now working with the implant technique. (Can't recall what that technique is called--Cam??)
Phoenix girl, I know it feels hard to wait and research all this stuff, but it's a lot of money and your brain, so find out all imformation you can before deciding.
