SNDK - SanDisk Introduces New Line of Portable Digital Music Players in Time for the Holiday Season
Affordable Digital Music Players In 256-Megabytes, 512-Megabytes and 1-Gigabyte Capacities Store and Play Digital Music Purchased From Popular Windows Media Audio Music Sites
10/12/2004 12:04:00 PM
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct 12, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- SanDisk(R) Corporation (SNDK) today introduced the SanDisk Digital Audio Player, a small, portable player that uses embedded flash memory instead of a rotating hard drive and plays for up to 15 continuous hours on a single AAA battery. The new Digital Audio Players combine crystal-clear sound with a sleek design and sport a three-button/one-joystick design and easy-to-navigate user interface. They feature MP3, Windows Media(R) file and Windows Media-based DRM file playback, FM radio and voice recording and can double as a USB data storage device. Because the players have the ability to play Windows Media-based DRM files, they can be used with any of the popular music purchase sites, such as Musicmatch(R) music store.
"The new Digital Audio Player line offers all of the key features you need in a portable music player at a highly affordable price," said Eric Bone, director of retail product marketing at SanDisk. "It uses reliable flash memory which offers greater durability and ruggedness, smaller size, no noise of a rotating drive, and the ability to play hundreds of songs on a single AAA battery. In addition, it is designed to work seamlessly with a wide range of music sites that offer popular music formats such as MP3 and Windows Media as well as Windows Media-based DRM files from music subscription sites. This will make an ideal gift for the holidays."
Ida Rose Sylvester, senior semiconductor analyst at IDC, said, "Leaders in flash memory cards and USB flash drives are leveraging their expertise into flash-based compressed audio players, and control over memory sourcing could be the critical competitive difference in the market. SanDisk has ownership in a NAND flash fab, and can leverage that to their advantage."
The SanDisk Digital Audio Player is available in 256MB (red), 512MB (blue) and 1GB (silver) capacities. Additional features include:
-- Hi-Speed USB 2.0 for fast music transfer speeds
-- Up to 1GB internal storage

DRM music files
-- Up to 15 hours of continuous use with a single AAA battery

NMKT news - NewMarket Technology, Inc. Releases Forecast of Profitable $75 Million in 2005 Booked Revenue In Shareholder Letter
October 07, 2004 11:20:00 (ET)
DALLAS, Oct 7, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- NewMarket Technology, Inc. (NMKT, Trade) today released a letter to shareholders from the CEO, Philip Verges. In the letter, Mr. Verges announces the third annual NewMarket Technology Town Hall Meeting intended as a venue to review with shareholders the Company's plans for 2005. Mr. Verges highlights in the shareholder letter current year performance through the third quarter of 2004 and performance expectations for the fourth quarter. Mr. Verges also uses the letter to shareholders as a means to communicate with shareholders-at-large regarding frequently asked questions.
The letter to shareholders is included in its entirety within this press release.
Dear Fellow Shareholders:
The third quarter of 2004 has just concluded and NewMarket remains ahead of plan to achieve forecasted financial performance objectives for the year. Plans to reach $75 million in profitable revenue in 2005 are well underway. We have just scheduled our third Annual Town Hall Meeting in Dallas for Dec. 9 to review our detailed 2005 plans with shareholders. In reaction to the encouraging attendance at last year's meeting, as well as the enthusiastic response from those that attended, we have expanded the Town Hall agenda to include a presentation from the managers of each of our high-tech subsidiaries and affiliates, as well as a tour of our facilities in Dallas. In addition to reviewing detailed enterprise growth plans for 2005, management will also update shareholders on our progress toward advancing NewMarket Technology onto a national stock exchange.
Year-to-Date Performance Through 3rd Quarter 2004
New Market recently announced increasing its 2004 booked revenue forecast from $20 million to $24 million as a result of better than expected organic growth. In the first six months of 2004, the Company exceeded $10 million in revenue with a small second quarter loss of $75,000. The Company forecasts a profitable annualized revenue run rate of over $50 million by year-end. Shareholders can anticipate a third quarter SEC Form 10Q filing that will report financial performance consistent with the recently increased booked revenue forecast for the year.
In 2002, NewMarket, launched a business plan to continuously introduce emerging communication technologies to the marketplace by utilizing a new financing model for early technologies specific to the micro-cap market. Since then, the NewMarket Technology business model has established sales traction and is now building notable momentum in new contracts, partnerships and acquisitions. We have a growing base of profitable systems integration business selling and implementing brand name solutions from Sun Microsystems (SUNW, Trade), Cisco Systems (CSCO, Trade) and Microsoft (MSFT, Trade) to name only a few. With these brand name products, we package our own proprietary emerging technologies. Each of NewMarket's proprietary technologies resides within an independent subsidiary or affiliate company. Each sale we make of a proprietary technology enhances the equity value of the respective subsidiary or affiliate company. By packaging emerging technologies with brand name technologies, NewMarket has implemented a practical marketing strategy for new technologies with a lower associated expense. Along with the enhanced equity value that results from each emerging technology sale comes an even more lucrative future equity income opportunity in the form of capital appreciation for the NewMarket shareholders. In fact, NewMarket is actively in the process of staging our first of a number planned subsidiary spin-offs.
In the last 18 months, NewMarket has acquired four high-tech subsidiaries and established a 20% or better equity stake in four high-tech affiliate companies, in addition to expanding our sales and delivery capability through the acquisition of three systems integration companies. NewMarket ended 2003 with a headcount of about 70 -- and has grown to more than 300 employees in four countries. Separate from the revenue growth associated with our mergers and acquisitions, 40% of NewMarket's revenue growth from 1st quarter to 2nd quarter in 2004 was generated by increased organic sales.
In addition to the exceptional revenue growth in 2004, the Company has also made substantial progress in our preparations for a national exchange listing. We believe the Over The Counter Bulletin Board Exchange (OTCBB) is an excellent venue for early stage Companies seeking capital formation and we intend to continue taking advantage of the many benefits the OTCBB exchange has to offer early stage Companies in regard to our portfolio of high-tech subsidiaries and affiliates. However, as NewMarket matures to the next stage, we will seek to take advantage of the enhanced capital formation opportunities and larger potential investor base that comes with the stability associated with the increased regulation and heightened standards of a national exchange.
Frequently Asked Questions
Recently we have received a number of questions regarding the Company's issued and outstanding share balance as well as the authorized number of shares. I will take some time below to articulate the history of the issued and outstanding as well as the authorized. In short, the issued and outstanding is currently at approximately 70 million shares and the authorized number of shares is 300 million.
NewMarket began the year at approximately 55 million shares issued and outstanding. Throughout the course of 2003, the Company has made several acquisitions as summarized above. All the above listed acquisitions have been appropriately disclosed. The Company has also orchestrated a small number of strategic financing transactions in conjunction with the above listed acquisitions. Furthermore, the Company has engaged the services of executive talent on both an employee and consulting basis to help the company execute on plans in association with the above-mentioned acquisitions. All of the acquisitions have been made with restricted securities, as have all of the financial arrangements and the executive compensation commitments.
I imagine some portion of the questions regarding the issued and outstanding may be related to a certain degree of skepticism surrounding the integrity of management teams in general that work in OTCBB listed Companies. A certain degree of skepticism is healthy and I would encourage shareholders to inquire in regard to any doubts they may have with the management of any Company where they are a shareholder or prospective shareholder.
With this in mind, I will try to address any possible concerns with the management team as it might relate to the increase in the issued and outstanding in 2004. I have not received any additional shares in 2004 nor do I anticipate receiving any shares. I have not sold any shares in 2004 nor do I anticipate selling any shares. No officers or directors of NewMarket have sold any shares in 2004 nor do I anticipate any officers or directors selling any shares in 2004.
When considering the issued and outstanding, I believe it is worthwhile to look at NewMarket in the framework of the overall OTCBB. The top 100 most actively traded issues on the OTCBB of course changes every day, however you find many of the same Companies on the list on a consistent daily basis. NewMarket regularly makes this list. The average issued and outstanding number of shares of companies usually in the top 100 approaches 1 Billion shares -- not the authorized, but the already issued and outstanding. The average share price of the usual companies on the top 100 list is $0.07 with an average 52 week high of $0.31. We are pleased that NewMarket regularly achieves recognition as one of the top 100 most actively traded , but when it comes to the top 100's issued and outstanding balances, we do not have any intention of competing in this category.
In addition to questions regarding the issued and outstanding, there also seems to be some confusion regarding the number of Authorized shares. As previously mentioned, the number of Authorized shares is 300 million. This has been the number of Authorized shares since 2002. The number of Authorized shares was increased from 100 million by a shareholder vote and board vote in conjunction with the purchase of VergeTech. The VergeTech acquisition was the landmark event initiating the current business plan articulated in this letter. Given the share price at the time of the VergeTech acquisition, the Authorized had to be increased to accommodate the potential fully diluted obligations of the Company.
For some reason, there appears to be a concern that the issued and outstanding was recently increased from 100 million shares to 300 million shares. This is not the case. I do have someone at our Company reviewing recent filings to see if we inadvertently put the old 100 million number in a recent document that might account for the confusion. If we discover such an inaccuracy, we will accordingly file an amendment.
In light of our revenue growth expectations, the increase in shares outstanding are well in line. As a reminder, NewMarket booked revenue of $2.3 Million in 2003, and we expect to finish 2004 with realized revenue of $24 Million and to achieve revenue of $75 Million in 2005. Once again, in light of possible skepticism regarding management intentions, there is no plan in place nor is there any current consideration of a plan that would call for the Company to make use of even half of the current Authorized.
All of us working here at NewMarket are excited about our progress in 2004 and even more enthusiastic about our plans for 2005. We hope many of you will find the time to visit us in Dallas on Dec. 9 for the Annual Town Hall and tour our Dallas facilities. I also travel frequently for the purpose of being available in person to speak with shareholders. Our offices are always open for shareholders to visit although we would recommend an appointment. We encourage shareholders to take advantage of any opportunity to learn more about NewMarket first hand from our management team and staff.
Thank you,
Philip Verges

USTT just might start climbing back up that hill on this news - Coca-Cola Bottler First to Install Smaller, More Affordable e-Port(R) Cashless Technology
October 07, 2004 06:00:00 (ET)
MALVERN, Pa., Oct 7, 2004 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- USA Technologies Inc, (USTT, Trade) today announced the completion of the smaller, less expensive new Generation 5 e-Port(R) cashless transaction device and that one of the biggest Coca-Cola bottlers is already installing it.
"It costs less because it's one piece, smaller, quick and easy to install, and already customers who are Beta testing it are reporting success," said George R. Jensen, Jr., Chairman of the Board and CEO, USA Technologies Inc. "The simplicity of installation, the ability for the unit to connect via a wireless connection and the lower cost are some of the changes USA Technologies made to make it even easier for operators to start accepting credit cards and other forms of cashless payments," he said.
"Our experience with USA Technologies' newest e-Port has been very encouraging. It's easy to install, and from all angles, looks to be a great stride forward for the e-Port product line," said Dominic Celenza, Vice President of Cold Drink Sales, Coca-Cola Philadelphia.
The G5 e-Port is believed by USA Technologies to be the world's first 'one-piece' design for implementation of cashless vending. The new technology can be installed into a vending machine in five minutes or less. It also comes with wireless connectivity, instantly enabling a vending location to accept credit/debit card transactions.
As with earlier versions of the e-Port device, IBM will host USALive(TM), which is the Company's transaction processing and data network. With USALive Online(TM), USA Technologies' customers have real-time, web-based access to sales (cash and credit), inventory and maintenance data from their vending machines.
"We are entering an exciting period for USA Technologies because the G-5 e-Port promises to rapidly become a significant contributor to our anticipated growth," said Mr. Jensen. "The G-5 Beta implementations have been a resounding success, and in general, customer reaction to the product has been outstanding."
The smaller, less expensive e-Port promises to further accelerate the emergence of cashless vending by offering greater return on investment. The improved 'payback' to owners and operators will be in the form of the reduced overall cost, driven by a lower purchase price, reduction in installation time and cost, and improved serviceability.
"We feel the G5 e-Port is a major milestone for our Company, and will further accelerate sales growth and opportunity for USA Technologies. The lower cost and convenience of the latest e-Port is expected to accelerate the adoption of cashless industry wide. We believe that it won't be long before most vending machines offer consumers both cash and cashless payment options," said Mr. Jensen.
The Generation 5 e-Port is one of the products made possible by the recently announced revolutionary networking application that combines USA Technologies' e-Port(R) software for global transactions with ZiLOG's Award Winning eZ80Acclaim!(TM) Family of Flash microcontrollers (MCU's). The Companies have worked together in this regard pursuant to a five-year Strategic Alliance.

PWAV - Powerwave Technologies Selected to Provide Wireless Coverage System for Mandalay Bay Resort Group
9/30/2004 3:05:00 PM
SANTA ANA, Calif., Sep 30, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Powerwave Technologies Inc. (PWAV) today announced that it has been awarded a contract to design and install an indoor distributed antenna system to improve the quality of wireless voice and data coverage for four Mandalay Resort Group properties in Las Vegas. The project, which covers more than seven million total square feet, will be implemented throughout 2004 with wireless coverage being provided to all facilities starting in the first quarter of 2005.
"The Mandalay Resort Group is known for the sophistication of their resorts. Guests, therefore, expect seamless wireless services," said Robert Legendre, president, Americas and Asia, of Powerwave Technologies Inc. "The Powerwave multi-service, multi-technology shared wireless network will provide enhanced wireless coverage for participating wireless network operators that serve the Las Vegas strip area."
The Mandalay Bay Resort Group properties included in the project are:
-- Mandalay Bay Convention Center
-- Mandalay Bay Hotel and Casino
-- "THEhotel" at Mandalay
-- Mandalay Place
-- The Four Seasons Hotel
-- Excalibur Hotel and Casino
-- Luxor Hotel and Casino
-- Monte Carlo Hotel and Casino
The Powerwave system utilizes network operator-dedicated active components (RF amplifiers) and a shared passive infrastructure (fiber, cable and antennas). This advanced system architecture allows participating operators complete independence in network optimization. The wireless network operator's base station equipment will be located in a centralized "base station hotel," located in the Mandalay Resort Group's flagship hotel facility, Mandalay Bay. From the "base station hotel," signals are fed to an active distributed antenna system. Due to the modularity of the system design by Powerwave, initial infrastructure requirements are reduced while still supporting smooth technology upgrades and providing future system expansion capabilities. The common distributed antenna system will be capable of supporting all major wireless network operators serving the area and the technologies they offer, including CDMA, GSM and PCS, as well as WiFi. The proprietary, multi-band antenna technology of Powerwave is the basis of key system elements allowing a cost-efficient and aesthetically unobtrusive implementation.
The contract includes operations and maintenance for a defined period of time. The recently completed Powerwave National Operations Center (NOC) in Texas will provide day-to-day operation, management and support of the system. The NOC staff performs ongoing optimization, operations, maintenance and repair of critical network elements. This service is supplemented with training for a client's internal network operations and support staff.

Powerwave Technologies is a global supplier of end-to-end solutions for wireless communications networks. Powerwave designs, manufactures and markets antennas, boosters, combiners, filters, repeaters, multi-carrier RF power amplifiers, tower-mounted amplifiers and advanced coverage solutions, all for use in cellular, PCS and 3G networks throughout the world.

LQMT news - Liquidmetal Technologies Provides Update on Status of External Audits and SEC Filings
MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 2004 7:00 AM
- BusinessWire
LAKE FOREST, CA, Sep 27, 2004 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Liquidmetal(R) Technologies, Inc. (Pink Sheets:LQMT) announced today that it is nearing completion of the ongoing audits and expected restatement of the company's consolidated financial results for certain prior reporting periods. Liquidmetal and Stonefield Josephson Inc. ("Stonefield"), the company's independent auditor, currently expect to complete the audit and file its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 by October 18, 2004.
Liquidmetal and Stonefield also expect to complete the review of results and file the respective Form 10-Qs for the first and second quarters of 2004 shortly after the filing of its Form 10-K. The company intends to host a conference call to discuss these results and provide an update on current operations once it has become current in its SEC filings.
As previously disclosed, Stonefield was engaged as Liquidmetal's new independent auditor on May 21, 2004. Stonefield is currently finalizing a full audit of the company's consolidated financial statements for the three years ended December 31, 2001, 2002, and 2003, as well as reviews of the company's consolidated financial statements for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2004. Given the time-consuming nature of comprehensively auditing three years of consolidated financial statements and reviewing two quarters of financial statements in 2004, Liquidmetal has not yet filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003 or its Forms 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31 and June 30, 2004.
About Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc.
Liquidmetal Technologies, Inc., http://www.liquidmetal.com, is the leading developer, manufacturer, and marketer of products made from amorphous alloys. Amorphous alloys are unique materials that are characterized by a random atomic structure, in contrast to the crystalline atomic structure possessed by ordinary metals and alloys. Bulk Liquidmetal(R) alloys are two to three times stronger than commonly used titanium alloys, harder than tool steel, and relatively non-corrosive and wear resistant. Bulk Liquidmetal alloys can also be molded into precision net-shaped parts similar to plastics, resulting in intricate and sophisticated engineered designs. Liquidmetal Technologies is the first company to produce amorphous alloys in commercially viable bulk form, enabling significant improvements in products across a wide array of industries. The combination of a super alloy's performance coupled with unique processing advantages positions Liquidmetal alloys for what the company believes will be The Third Revolution(TM) in material science.
