All:

This may be a dumb question or may be a question that is difficult to answer, but i will at the risk of being labeled a knucklehead i will ask anyway.

the first question is regarding the number that keeps getting batted around regarding the percentage of the market we are presently licensed with,

I have seen where it was said on the call and here on this board about being approximately 50% licensed with the manufacturers. So the question is, is that based on 50% of the industry sales dollars or based on 50% of the number of manufactures?

I ask because based on our 300 million dollars in sales and if we are talking sales dollars if we are 50%, if we got 100% of them licensed on sales we can expect 600 million and while there are other ways to gain business, getting to the 800 million does not seem attainable at least at this time

However if it is 50% of the number of manufacturers out there then depending on the total sales we get or their percentage of the market 800 may or may not be attainable.

So the other question is, if it is 50% of the companies do we know what their total sales represents as compared to the industry? I know that samsung is in there and they are at the top, but if the rest of the companies make up much less than half the sales then 800 million is possible.

Sorry for the long winded question, but was wondering whether we could get to that 800 million BM has mentioned more than a few times.
