Judge Wells
concurring.
I concur with the result reached by the majority with this additional comment. The “stream of commerce” standard set out in World-Wide Volkswagen Corp. v. Woodson, 444 U.S. 286, 62 L.Ed.2d 490 (1980) establishes a two-step analysis: (1) whether a foreign defendant has placed or delivered its product into the stream of commerce, and (2) with the expectation that the product will be purchased by consumers in the forum state. The acts of the defendant in this case meet both requirements of this standard.
