Shares in Tadpole Technology Plc – the Cambridge, UK-based single board computer and Unix notebook computer manufacturer – were temporarily suspended at 23.5 pence at the company’s own request pending publication of the report and accounts for the period ending September 30, which is way over-due. Tadpole said in November it would need to raise new money, but it now appears that this will be no more than enough to keep it limping along – under 5m pounds is mentioned. The firm which wanted to skip the frog stage and go straight from tadpole to prince, now looks more like frogspawn.
