I guess the 'smoke and mirrors' extends to TI's web site, aye? And all of those joint PR's with TI, Infineon, ZMD, etc, were just a figmant of our imagination. Thanks, but I think I'll go with door #1.
BTW, what are you taking for hallucinations?
My gosh, you have to be one of the most ignorant people I've ever come across.
The'proof' that you requested is exactly where I told you to look...ON ABEW'S MESSAGE BOARD.
As far as your three questions, you'll have to do your own DD. I'm not your lacky. Call the Transfer Agent and verify the O/S yourself. Sift through the latest filings for the float, etc. As far as security...it was YOU that said you had proof that it was vulnerable. I said that the spec had five layers and that the 'security layer' was fully encrypted.
As far as your 'Dec 22nd prediction', the FACT is that you've been predicting single digits for over a year. And still nothing. Will it ever happen...who knows? But the FACT is that you've been wrong for over a year!!!
Give that ego of yours a break, pal. We're all tired of hearing how perfect you are...NOT. LMAO!!!
You guys crack me up. We're probably only a few weeks away from getting approval from the NASD and you guys are still predicting doom and gloom.
If you read the message board on ABEW's web site, you'll see that trading on the OTCBB will open many, many opportunities for financing and marketing. This translates into more investors and should propel the PPS much higher.
Just my opinion, of course.
Agreed. eom.
Okay. It didn't sound like you, that's why I asked. You can always tell a one-sided article when the person writing it neglects to get a comment from the other competitors.
TOP TEN REASONS TO OWN ABEW SHARES:
1) ABEW has now locked up License Agreements with some of the biggest chipmakers and semi-conductor manufacturers in the world...including Texas Instruments, Infineon, ZMD, Jennic, and many other companies!!!
2) The ZigBee Alliance has finally released its new specification which will now allow mass production from our Licencees.
3) Once mass production starts in earnest, ABEW should start collecting royalties immediately!!!
4) Once the analysts see a huge spike in our revenue stream from the royalties, we should attract a lot of attention from the investment world. There is no telling what this will do to our share price!!!
5) Once ABEW receives its final clearance from the SEC, we should be trading on the OTCBB very shortly - which in turn will open up a whole new set of investors for our company.
6) As of 10/6/06, our transfer agent has confirmed that we only have 89+ million shares in the O/S. (Oh, I just love this!!!)
7) The ZigBee frequency is the ONLY stack that has been standardized around the world for its industry. Because of this standardization, many experts feel that ZigBee will dominate the industrial and commercial sectors for many, many years to come...Huge savings for the Medical Industry, Home Automation, Heating and Cooling, Meter Reading, Sensors for Industrial Automation (this is HUGE), Electronic Toys, etc. (How's that for a long term investment?!!!)
8) Of all the ZigBee Alliance members, Airbee Wireless is considered to have one of the most highly trained and experienced staff of software engineers in the world. And, because their engineers are located in India, their costs are far lower than most other software companies.
9) Airbee Wireless also has a Technical Advisory Board that includes some of the most talented and respected PhD's in the U.S. - including Dr. Jeff Reed!!!
10) Airbee Wireless is currently traded on the Pink Sheets - which means that it is under the radar of most analysts. However, once it gets approval from the NASD to trade on the OTCBB, all bets are off!!!
I could add many more reasons but I think this is good enough for anyone to see where Airbee Wireless is heading. If you want more information and a complete listing of their products, go to their web site at www.airbeewireless.com
Disclaimer: All comments are just my opinion and should NOT be considered as factual.
Agreed. So why did you think that wibree would "kill ZigBee"?
Thanks atco. I especially like this part:
"This looks pretty poor in comparison to some of the other short range wireless technologies on the market, such as Zigbee and Z-Wave, both of which are established with hardware in production.
Neither standard feels they have much to fear from Wibree. In a statement, the Zigbee Alliance said: "We can only surmise that this is simply a proprietary solution masked as some type of industry driven push."
A representative of Zensys (owners of Z-Wave) was equally taciturn: "It seems like a marketing spec, they have said nothing which would worry me".
So, is there room for another wireless standard? Nokia certainly thinks so, and says that while Zigbee and Z-Wave are aimed at home automation and industrial markets, Wibree has a different focus.
Quite what that focus is isn't clear. Nokia keeps citing the connected watches and shoes, as well as keyboards and mice, as its target market. But it seems unlikely that those constitute enough of a business to justify their own wireless standard. Most wireless mice and keyboards use proprietary protocols, but where a standard is needed then Bluetooth seems to do OK. Squeezing their market down to watches and shoes surely makes it insignificant, and ironic, as sales of watches are dropping because people use their phones to tell the time.
So we are left with a half-finished standard, addressing a tiny market which might not even exist, and the question of why Nokia chose to announce it now. Surely it would have been better to wait until the standard was completed, at least in draft form?
It seems Nokia is not entirely unaware of the challenges facing Wibree. It tells us the reason for the announcement was to allow other companies to sign up early, something Nokia will be urgently hoping some of them will do. ®"
Perhaps where cell phones are concerned...MAYBE. But they don't have anywhere near the participation that ZigBee has from the commercial/industrial sectors. I really don't think their tech is based on mesh-networking which leaves me to believe this is just a desperate attempt at surviving the inevitable. They know their fate hangs in the balance and the writing is on the wall...just like Zensys/Z-Wave, remember?
Disclaimer: All comments are just my opinion and should NOT be considered as factual.
RE: Wibree will kill ZigBee
Is the technology behind wibree based on mesh-networking or is it just low-power technology?
If it does have mesh-networking, will it be self-healing?
Is Bluetooth's technology an open standard or is it a proprietary standard like Z-Wave?
With a launch date of 4-Q 2007, I'd say they're waaaaay behind the 8-ball.
Am I missing something? What do you think?
Nope. The burden of proof is on you, pal. You constantly make these wild azz statements and never have any proof to back it up. So go ahead, Steve, enlighten us with your DD. Or is it just more BS coming out of your mouth???
Beano...There are five layers that make up the ZigBee stack. The 'security layer' is fully encrypted for extra security. It is my understanding that a person cannot "set up" ZigBee devices over the air unless it matches the security layer code.
Of course, I didn't "personally call" anyone to confirm this so perhaps YOU should do your own DD to verify if I'm correct.
(Voluntary Disclosure: Position- Long; ST Rating- Strong Buy; LT Rating- Strong Buy)
That's getting old, pal. ABEW has never hit single digits. But if you're convinced it will, I'll buy your shares for .10/each and you can make a profit. Or are you just blowing smoke as usual?
Thought so.
Wireless Parking Tickets?
Heck, that's just the beginning IMO. How about sensors that detect when you're speeding and you automatically get ticketed? Or sensors that detect when your tire pressure is too low? (Coming soon!!!) Or, how about sensors that detect when you've run a red light and send you a ticket in the mail? Oops, they've already got that one. LOL!!!
Folks, we haven't seen anything yet. I think the best usage will be sensors along our borders to detect illegal immigration and drug running, IMO.
Might as well make some money on this technology while they're in the beginning stages.
Well, my point is that the money from Montgomery was NOT a new deal. It was simply the completion of the original $500k back in December, 2005. ABEW only received $350k back then. The other $150k is supposed to be paid upon the transition to the OTCBB. The whole deal was spelled out in the original filing with the SEC. Nothing to get excited about IMO.

Buzzing about ZigBee: Wireless in 2007
October 4, 2006
By Sandra Gittlen
IT managers seeking end-to-end visibility for the enterprise are one step closer with a new wireless standard.
ZigBee, or IEEE 802.15.4, is a low-power, short-range wireless technology that can be used to integrate sensor and sensor-based systems – such as lighting, security and HVAC – with other parts of the enterprise. (The name “ZigBee” comes from the little zigzag dance that honeybees use to tell their fellow colony members about food sources.)
“Enterprises that have large facilities or many branch offices can use ZigBee to automate and control many functions like air conditioning or heating levels. This type of automation has advantages that range from cost cutting to improvements in productivity,” says John DiGiovanni, director of marketing at Calif.-based wireless vendor Xirrus.
ZigBee differs from the 802.11 wireless offerings in many key ways. “802.11 is designed to address the needs of local area networking where speed is one of the key requirements, and it places no importance on long battery life, networks that self-organize and self-heal, or cost,” says Bob Heile, chairman of the ZigBee Alliance, a group of 200 members in San Ramon, Calif. He adds that 802.11 networks also are limited in scale to attachments of about 50 clients.
Conversely, he says, “ZigBee networks can range in size from a few radios to as many as 65,000 and these networks are capable of self-forming and self-healing. ZigBee battery-powered devices are cable of operating for years without needing replacement.”
New Standard, New Products
Though data rates don’t exceed 250K bit/sec and the distance is limited to 300 feet, experts say this is more than enough for sensor networks. “IT administrators need to understand that ZigBee will not accommodate large chunks of data so you’re not going to use it to replace your wired or Wi-Fi network. You can think of ZigBee as a purpose-built technology, one that provides a low-cost wireless connectivity option for sensor or monitoring systems,” DiGiovanni says.
The standard, ratified in December 2004, will soon be updated. Early next year, the 200-member ZigBee Alliance, a group of 200 members, plans to release an enhanced version that includes simplified maintenance and over-the-air setup. Honeywell, Philips, Siemens and Samsung are among the Alliance's major players.
“There are well over a thousand companies developing with ZigBee so we can expect a growing stream of products over the next 12 months,” he says. “There are products that address things like monitoring fire extinguishers to ensure they are charged and ready to go; automatic meter reading for utilities; and Zigbee-enabled SIM cards for mobile phones that allow the phone to act as a gateway, point of sale device and control unit for building systems. Pretty much anywhere you would find a sensor or control would benefit [from ZigBee].”
Wireless Integration
Anticipating that ZigBee networks will be melded into other parts of the enterprise, the ZigBee standard includes guidelines for gateways that allow ZigBee sensor and control networks to integrate with other wired and wireless networks.
“Data being collected or monitored by these sensor networks can be sent across to the IP network to the people responsible for facilities management,” DiGiovanni says.
Craig Mathias, principal at the Farpoint Group consultancy, says ZigBee will enable IT managers to expand their networks and bring critical information about the enterprise, such as climate control and security, into other enterprise applications.
He adds that ZigBee will peacefully coexist with other wireless networking technologies, such as RFID. “ZigBee is infrastructure-focused, while RFID is at the edge,” he says.
Mathias says ZigBee will be broadly influential in enterprise environments where telemetry, control and sensors are involved, such as a factory floor, logistics and transportation. “You can use ZigBee to help monitor the arrival of parts – it can be used in conjunction with RFID in that respect,” he says.
DiGiovanni says now is the time for IT managers to learn about this technology. “Get educated on the types of devices that can utilize ZigBee and how they can be integrated into your current infrastructure.”
This money is an extension of the original debenture in December, 2005. If you read SB-2 thoroughly, the agreement called for a total of $500,000. $350,000 was paid in December, 2005 and the other $150,000 was to be paid at the time they transitioned to the OTCBB. IMO, we're not talking about a lot of money.
Disclaimer: All comments are just my opinion and should NOT be considered as factual.
That's correct. The revised 10-Q and K were one of the final requirements from the SEC before addressing the NASD. We are now one step closer to trading on the OTCBB.
I'm betting we'll be there by Wednesday, 10/18/06. Just a hunch.
WOW!!! Read this exchange from the ABEW web site...
Question to Gene Sharer:
"So, are we through with the comments from the SEC or not? According to your previous response to Henry Zimmer, we only had a few things to clean up and we could then start focusing on the NASD. Am I understanding this correctly? Thanks."
His response:
Msg # 149 Posted By: Gene Sharer
04 October 2006 08:38 EST
"You are correct. The cleanup is only to file the final reports which were reviewed by the SEC in draft. The reports are to be filed today."
Yesterday, I called the OTCBB and got a recording...so I left them my name and phone number to call me back. To my surprise, they called me back this morning. I just got off the phone with them two minutes ago!!!
I asked the person if there was a minimum waiting time for a pink sheet company to transfer to the OTCBB after they were approved by the SEC. His answer was "no". He said that each case is different and the most important factor to speed the transition process is for the pink sheet company to secure a Market Maker. He said that once you have a Market Maker, you should be trading on the OTCBB very quickly. (He wouldn't speculate as to what "very quickly" meant.)
So I guess our next question for ABEW's management is when they plan on getting a MM to represent us on the OTCBB!!!
Yahoooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Airbee Wireless Form 10SB Registration Statement, As Amended, Clears SEC Review
Business Wire, Oct 10, 2005
ROCKVILLE, Md. -- Airbee Wireless (OTC:ABEW) today announced that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has advised the Company that its Form 10SB Registration Statement is no longer subject to SEC review. The company first filed a Form 10SB in August of 2004 and has been responding to several rounds of comments from the SEC. The registration statement was deemed effective by law in October of 2004 but required amendments to reflect responses to SEC comments. As of the effective date, the company became a fully reporting entity with requirements to file both annual and quarterly reports through its Form 10KSB and Form 10QSB respectively.
Gene Sharer, the company President and Chief Operating Officer, remarked, "We believe the clearance of our registration statement is a significant milestone in the development of our company. We believe it opens the door for us to financing opportunities and technical developments. We believe the perception of the company by our market sector will be that of a more mature and robust company."
The company's securities currently trade on the pink sheets. With the clearance of the Form 10SB, an application to trade on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTC-BB) will be submitted on behalf of the company.
(Voluntary Disclosure: Position- Long; ST Rating- Strong Buy; LT Rating- Strong Buy)
THIS IS HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"3. We have been informed that the SEC has accepted our response to all outstanding comments. We have a little cleanup to do this week but is not more than filing in final what we have filed informally in draft. We will then be proceding to NASD requesting listing on the OTCBB."
FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Henry, you ask some very detailed questions but I'll try to respond to them in the order in which you wrote them. 1. The 13+ million shares are those which are in escrow to guarantee the debenture with Montgomery. In actuality, we have requested registration of those plus the 1.7+ million shares the management of the company escrowed along with the 13+ million and the 2 million warrants which are a part of the debenture. A read of the filing will reveal that the deal is not a set number of shares for conversion but the lessor of(80%)of the lowest 10 day closing bid price prior to the closing date or 80% of the lowest closing bid price for 10 trading days immediately preceding the conversion date. Since the initial closing date has passed, at this time, the latter option is in play. So if we say that the lowest closing bid price for the past 10 days is $0.16 and Montgomery chose to convert some ar all of the debenture, the price would be $0.128 per share and which would take 2,734,375 shares to underwrite the conversion of $350,000 which is all that is presently outstanding. At $500,000, should the balance be funded, the number of shares requires would be 3,906,250 in the above example. Obviously, if the share price goes up, the number of shares required will be lower.
2. Once the SEC makes the registration effective, the remaining shares would then be available to the company for future use.
3. We have been informed that the SEC has accepted our response to all outstanding comments. We have a little cleanup to do this week but is not more than filing in final what we have filed informally in draft. We will then be proceding to NASD requesting listing on the OTCBB.
(Voluntary Disclosure: Position- Long; ST Rating- Strong Buy; LT Rating- Strong Buy)
Yup. Now you know why the OEM's were quick to put on the brakes when they heard that the old spec was going to be "enhanced".
I especially like the following improvements...
"Future releases of the spec will be backward-compatible.
One of the main differences between the 2006 and 2004 versions is a change in the addressing scheme, said Andy Wheeler, chief technology officer of Ember Corp., a provider of ZigBee chips and software. ZigBee is meant to accommodate 65,000 nodes on a network, but developers found that the larger networks were becoming unstable over time. That's because initially ZigBee used a tree structure for addressing, which restricted the number of addresses to well below what was theoretically available, Wheeler said.
In the 2006 spec, a random addressing scheme is used, with built-in address conflict resolution.
That will be key to large deployments of ZigBee in industrial markets because it allows for many more network nodes. However, developers in the industrial market may still wait for the ZigBee Pro stack, which will include features aimed at industrial and commercial building automation, such as higher levels of security and improved frequency hopping."
LOL...I'm glad somebody grasped what I was doing. There were 'others' that didn't see the significance of that PR. In due time, all of these PR's will prove to be the basis for our revenue stream.
Why is this NEWS important? Because...
1) ZMD is the worlds largest provider of sub-1 GHz radios. Since signing a License Agreement with ABEW, they have now chosen to use our software to promote the first sub-1 GHz 4-node kit for mass production.
2) Because ZMD is the worlds largest provider of sub-1 GHz radios, they also have a HUGE list of customers that will be testing their new 4-node kit. Once these customers are satisfied with the testing, they will have the opportunity to upgrade their software by signing a License Agreement directly with ABEW.
3) These new License Agreements will lead to MORE royalties being paid to Airbee Wireless.
IMO, it's worth another read...
Ridgeland, MS, SEP 27, 2006 (EventX/Knobias.com via COMTEX) -- Airbee Wireless, Inc. (ABEW) and SoftBaugh, Inc. announced that they have teamed to provide a platform that includes Airbee's free 4-node ZigBee protocol stack resident on TI MSP430 controllers and ZMD new 900 MHz radios. Application developers can now rapidly build and test a 4-node mesh network ZigBee solution in the 900 MHz frequency band. This teaming offers customers a ready-made platform to integrators and OEMs looking for turnkey 900 MHz ZigBee solutions. Based on the ZigBee standard, Airbee's platform independent ZNS protocol stack now enables designers and third parties to easily begin ZigBee application development on the ZMD/MSP430 combination. Developers can upgrade to the full Airbee ZNS protocol stack for specific project development.

George Carlin's View on Aging
Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions.
"How old are you?" "I'm four and a half!" You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going on five! That's the key.
You get into your teens, now they can't hold you back. You jump to the next number, or even a few ahead.
"How old are you?" "I'm gonna be 16!" You could be 13, but hey, you're gonna be 16! And then the greatest day of your life . . . You become 21. Even the words sound like a ceremony . . YOU BECOME 21. YESSSS!!!
But then you turn 30. Oooohh, what happened there? Makes you sound like bad milk! He TURNED; we had to throw him out. There's no fun now, you're Just a sour-dumpling. What's wrong? What's changed?
You BECOME 21, you TURN 30, then you're PUSHING 40. Whoa! Put on the brakes, it's all slipping away. Before you know it, you REACH 50
And your dreams are gone.
But wait!!! You MAKE it to 60. You didn't think you would!
So you BECOME 21, TURN 30, PUSH 40, REACH 50 and MAKE it to 60.
You've built up so much speed that you HIT 70! After that it's a day-by-day thing; you HIT Wednesday!
You get into your 80's and every day is a complete cycle; you HIT lunch; you TURN 4:30; you REACH bedtime. And it doesn't end there. Into the 90's, you start going backwards; "I Was JUST 92."
Then a strange thing happens. If you make it over 100, you become a little kid again. "I'm 100 and a half!"
May you all make it to a healthy 100 and a half!!
HOW TO STAY YOUNG
1. Throw out nonessential numbers. This includes age, weight and height. Let the doctors worry about them. That is why you pay "them!"
2. Keep only cheerful friends. The grouches pull you down.
3. Keep learning. Learn more about the computer, crafts, gardening, whatever. Never let the brain idle. "An idle mind is the devil's workshop." And the devil's name is Alzheimer's.
4. Enjoy the simple things.
5. Laugh often, long and loud. Laugh until you gasp for breath.
6. The tears happen. Endure, grieve, and move on. The only person, who is with us our entire life, is ourselves. Be ALIVE while you are alive.
7. Surround yourself with what you love, whether it's family, pets, keepsakes, music, plants, hobbies, whatever. Your home is your refuge.
8. Cherish your health: If it is good, preserve it. If it is unstable, improve it. If it is beyond what you can improve, get help.
9 Don't take guilt trips. Take a trip to the mall, even to the next county; to a foreign country but NOT to where the guilt is.
10. Tell the people you love that you love them, at every opportunity.
AND ALWAYS REMEMBER:
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
And if you don't send this to at least 8 people - who cares?
But do share this with someone.
We all need to live life to its fullest each day!!
Have a wonderful day!!!!!
This is VERY significant!!!

ROCKVILLE, Md., Sept. 25, 2006, Sep 25, 2006 (PRIMEZONE via COMTEX) -- Airbee Wireless (Pink Sheets:ABEW) today announced that it has executed a partnership with Octave Technology of Ellicott City, Md. to provide a complete software solution for the wireless sensor networking market. This teaming will simplify the time-to-market engineering for integrators and OEMs to deploy wireless mesh sensor networks through the use of embedded ZigBee software from Airbee and Octave's application software which handles the data management and delivery gap between sensor networks and a company's existing IT infrastructure
Developing a ZigBee solution is much more complicated than putting all of the pieces together. To ensure successful ZigBee implementation, it is imperative to rely on partners who have the knowledge of the architecture, capability of assessing design options at the chip and module levels and evaluating numerous practical issues identifiable to applications. Airbee has developed embedded ZigBee software technology. The Airbee-ZNS stack has been certified by the ZigBee Alliance to the 1.0 specification. Airbee is currently working other platforms such TI's MSP430 and has the ability to develop applications on both multi-vendor and single vendor platform solutions.
Octave's software platform, OCTAVEX, is designed retrieve wireless sensor data regardless of hardware or network protocol and deliver it to an existing enterprise system or application such as asset management, work order ticketing, control or ERP applications allowing users to realize the full ROI potential of a wireless sensor deployment.
"Airbee's wireless mesh networking solutions integrated with Octave technology provides compelling value for deploying large-scale wireless sensor networks," said Raj Sundaresan, CEO of Airbee. "This partnership opens the door for OEM manufacturers, integrators and large end-users to quickly deploy and commission turnkey wireless sensor networks with immediate returns."
"OCTAVEX is designed to bridge the gap between sensor networks and a company's existing IT infrastructure," said Rick Morani, Founder and President of Octave. "Having a plug-in module from Airbee's ZNMS(tm) and ZNMS Lite(tm) Network Management Systems into the OCTAVEX framework will complete the data flow from sensor point through to an existing system. Airbee's embedded platform handles the network configuration and management, while our software handles the data management and delivery. It's an opportunity for both organizations to offer a comprehensive solution."
The two companies will participate in joint marketing efforts and mutually seek opportunities within the OEM market where sensor product companies are looking utilize a ZigBee or ZigBee-based solutions for low power mesh sensor networks.

btradin...That's got to be one of the best posts I've read.
Just my thoughts about our current situation...
First I want to clear up any rumors about yesterday's buying activity...it was NOT me!!!
It is my belief that someone probably did some DD on ZigBee and decided to take a position in ABEW. As I recall, a TV guru named "Cramer" briefly mentioned ZigBee as the wireless tech of the future and that probably got some people interested in us. IMO, this is just the beginning.
Eventually, as products FINALLY become available to the public, you will hear more and more comments about "ZigBee". When THAT happens, it shouldn't take long for the analysts to discover ABEW in a big way. After all, we've already had Press Releases by all of our Licensees...TI, Infineon, ZMD, Radiocrafts, etc. Therefore, we had better be off of the pinks by the time the analysts come searching or we'll miss out on a lot of BIG money that wants to invest in us. Don't get me wrong, we'll still have a nice run up with other investors if we're still on the pinks, but it'll be nowhere NEAR what we could have if/when we're on the OTCBB.
Just my two cents for what it's worth.

Can't argue that point. But I think they're doing everything they can to get SEC approval...just have to be patient. In the meantime, they continue to position themselves with the big semi's and chipmakers. I think the OEM's are next!!!
DoubleK...I think someone just wanted to take a decent position with ABEW. (Heck at this price, can you blame them?) Anyway, I noticed that the MM's moved UP very quick once there was a little buying. Makes one wonder how quick she'll move up once the buying really starts. Should be ral fun to watch.
Carp...Don't confuse them anymore. They think that a "planned sale" means an actual sale. It doesn't. When someone files to take the restriction off of their shares, it is listed as a "planned sale" - because their shares now become free trading. They should know by now that a Form 4 is ALWAYS required when an insider sells their stock.
Mx5110 has already posted the Form 4's by Gene Sharer for the past year. Glenn (gaq22) simply refuses to accept the fact that he was wrong. An apology is in order but I doubt we'll get one.
A real man always admits when he is wrong, while a rat hides behind his alias and ignores the facts.
Update regarding our OTCBB status...
The following is a response by Gene Sharer to several questions on ABEW's message board. The first response was to a question by "Tony" inquiring if ABEW's finances has anything to do with our approval process with the SEC.

The short answer is no, the SEC comments have nothing to do with the financial position of the company. The facts are that the SEC had no further comment on our Form 10SB. We have proceeded to file additional reports subsequent to the Form 10SB which are reviewed as well. The SOX compliance requirement has placed a severe burden on both small companies and the SEC. We are in a complex and difficult to understand technology and the technical and financial agreements we have made are also complex and difficult to understand. The SEC staff are not technologists, but are accounting and legal reviewers with the responsibility to assure full disclosure and understanding to the investing public, even though it's probable that only a small percentage of the investing public read the filings. I adnmit that we are dotting the i's and crossing the t's in many cases, but when this is behind us, we should have little difficulty in future filings. It has been a long and tedious road but we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.
[Gene seems to be very optimistic about the current situation. I'm very encouraged by this!!!]

DoubleK...Your attacks on Airbee are getting old. Can you show me ANYWHERE in those recent articles where they mention another company? Of course not. You just want to hammer away on Airbee because you're frustrated with the current price. If you can't be patient for this company to mature, then you might as well sell your shares now. At this point, No ONE is making any money in the ZigBee field. Why should Airbee be any different?
