I'm not surprised, the economy is in shambles right now. How many people are going to go out and buy NEW parts? Not many..

Wow, that's not good. Will they continue to operate in Japan?

If the US dollar is getting weaker, isn't that a reason NOT to operate out of Japan?

Exactly like I see in my industry. We were first to get hit about 4 years ago and it's slowly coming back (housing related architecture and engineering). Now all the stuff that wasn't hit is about to get decimated. Sad times for well known companies. =(
