svenm - or was it a month and a half ago?
svenm - it was mentioned back when June was ours, over a year ago when Steven was pleased to see the Palladium story released by Microsoft just prior to their last SHM. Steven was thrilled because (paraphrasing) now that Microsoft released the information, we (meaning Wave) are allowed to talk about it now. I believe that he also mentioned something about not being able to do so prior to that, due to strict NDA's with Microsoft. Not that Wave was the only one bound by these NDA's.
Trying to piece information together year-over-year is getting more and more difficult. I'd much rather try and remember something that happened last week, than last year. Maybe others recall this also, and can provide further details.

Only foe for now. There has to be some reason that Micorsoft and Wave have an NDA agreement that Wave was so concerned with.

barge ~ I think Steven knows, I just don't think we know. By licensing the product to an Intel/NSM/etc, Wave removes itself from being able to report these numbers by virtue of the fact that their partners (as Steven said) have total control over how many, when, and more importantly, when to release that information to the public.
In other words, if a standard OEM agreement (as Steven stated) is in place, it would give total control to the finished goods provider (in this case the the OEMs), and Wave would not be allowed to release numbers relating to that company's deployments until that company allowed them to do so.
However, that doesn't preclude Steven from having a pretty good idea of what's being planned behind the scenes. Because, like Steven said (which I thought was most telling of all) if it's a standard OEM agreement, then it likely has a standard ramp-up, cycle-time and deployment rollout schedule already defined. At least for the early months. I see no reason why someone like Steven wouldn't be able to know that already.
We'll just have to wait until we're allowed to know.

I hope this chart has at least 4-more big upswings in it without any major downward trends in between. It looks so nice progressing in its current pattern.

go-kitesurf and yaya -
I'm so glad someone else said it, and I didn't have to this time. As otherwise said using a Yogi-ism, "For Wave to perform as expected, Wave has to perform as expected"!

cpa - Which part(s) did you like vs. not?
Larry - Since I really did see it, and obviously it's my mistake, albeit an innocent mistake, why are you being so agressive with your response? Lay off the coffee!
Tampa123
Boy - You can't fool you guys.
Larry Dudash - Saw it on Quote.com. As a matter of fact, if you go there now, one of them should still be up there at 4:05 PM. So, that being said, I doubt accurate statements with no ill intent will be deleted. That is what I saw. But, if you choose not to believe me, I won't lose sleep over it.
Just passing along what I see.

Something's up with this stock. I just saw 5 or 6 seperate asks at $14.50 - $14.51.
Is someone positioning to be first to sell tomorrow at these prices, based on some news we don't know about yet!
CMF - Well now I'm relieved too, because that's what I thought
tampa123
OT - CMF - Here you go

Has anyone seen the news about Wave 'Teetering to Flush'?
It is a 2.2 minute ON24 report requiring RealPlayer. I do not have RealPlayer at the location I am at currently, so can anyone tell me the gist of what this report is about?
Thanks
Tampa123
Oh Well N4 - I guess my posts aren't worthy (lol)/e
Snacks - What happened to post 4389?
Was that my Moses post?
Tampa123
redau - we've all learned some lessons from the bubble years. I just hope I'm alive to see it re-occur. Might make some money this time.

Weby0 - Still leaving out of Dunellin Station on the 14th if the SHM is still on? If so, mind some company?

Please excuse the obvious spelling errors in my last post

Snackman - I think it's great that you see the forest and the trees. Truely, I believe that you do. Where I have problems with your statements is when you imply that the rest of us (meaning anyone who complains from time-to-time for whatever reason some of feel is valid) just don't get it. I put myself in this category. We do get it! And, we believe that in the long run, we're all going to be much better off as well. What you don't seem to get is that some of us where our emotions on our sleeves, and find it interesting and good therapy to vent these emotions - both good and bad.
Who says (besides you) that we are not entitled to do this, or that somehow we're showing our disloyalty to the cause (so to speak) if we do this? To me, it breaks up the monoteny of the 'Wave is Great' rhetoric that is a constant on the board. Do I like reading them too! Yes, I do like reading those. I also like reading the DD posts. But, equally as important, I like to read when someone is mad, or frustrated too, because it gives me a little better insight into the person. In other words, it's okay for me to see people who I know are devoted shareholders vent once in a while. It's okay. And, it doesn't make them bad people, blind people, or people that just don't get it.
Trust me when I tell ya --- I get it! I know if not all of what you know, I believe that I know most of what you know. I am very comfortable and very confident in my investment in Wave. And I recognize that it's only a matter of time, and that this time is already (finally) beginning to unfold before our eyes. Maybe, I'm just a little more emotionally impacted by the day-to-day than you are, but it doesn't mean that I don't get it. And, it doesn't mean that I'm going to be worth any less (or more) than you as it happens. What it does mean, is that you should act whatever way you choose, and I will too. So, if you don't pass judgement on us for the way we are, then I think turn about is fair play, and we should leave you alone too. But I gotta tell ya', my perception of your posts sometimes gives me the feeling that you think yhat by saying nothing but good things all of the time, you somehow are smarter than the rest of us.
All I'd ask is that you allow us to be ourselves a bit more without the referencing us as blinded minions that will someday see your wisdom. Truthfully, I'm in it for the money!
Ooops, is that a bad thing to say? :--)
As always - My very best regards,

Snacks - Wasn't your last sentence used in the Charlton Heston movie, "Moses". lol
awk - don't forget that there are many on this board who bought in above $20. These are not nice gains for them. These loyal investors are waiting for Wave to make a comeback, and are expecting after a wait of this long for everything to go as smoothly as possible. They don't have endless dry powder like some of you appear to imply, and they don't need bad press like this. And it can be prevented with a bit of care.
Most of what you're hearing aired on this board is frustration, because it has hampered (even if only temporarily) an otherwise good start to Wave's coming out party. While it's probably naive to assume that nothing will ever go wrong, it's just sad to see something happen within a couple of days following the first real share-affecting event we've had over the last several years.
So please top over-protecting those who will obviously survive, including yourself if this is a big gain for you, and try and show a little patience and understanding for those who are trying to get back some of their losses. As you have always been a very interesting and important poster on this board, I offer these comments with the highest level of respect for you.
Regards,
Tampa123
Oh Well - I just disagree with you yaya.

Longs - You can put a nice slant on this if you want, but this was a major F Up on Wave's part. No question about it. While I'd ask you to save the normal banter about what we've been through, and this being only a bump in the road, I'll also state - just to put it to rest - that I have no intentions on selling my shares, or thinking that Wave is going to go under or anything like that.
But, given Wave's struggles, and their stealthy posture over the past several years, it is not good for our little company to be screwing things up just when they begin to get some good press either. This is bad for Wave, because it sends a bad message, and leaves a bad taste in investor's mouths regarding Wave's integruity. Although we all know how hard Wave has worked to remain above reproach, and even over-protective of their business dealings this one incident (obviously) is the one that the larger investor community sees. In their minds, it erases anything that we know about Wave. We can't tell millions of investors what we know.
They can't afford these mistakes, and quite frankly, I don't want them to screw up like this again. This screw up cost their investors money. And, while I think a retrace was in order anyway, this is more than a retrace. It's a momentary loss of confidence, touched off by poorly managed PR. I don't want that! Now, everything that Wave puts out will need to be double-checked before the investors react again. So, while you all are trying to put a happy face on a bad situation, it's still a bad situation for Wave. Someone should lose their job over this IMO. These kinds of mistakes can not be tolerated.
I might be stating the obvious, but someone has to.

allshore10 - are you sure?
Barge - The new OS in Microsoft's Palladium..... You already know what that announcement's going to sound like don't you?
Tampa123
Bearmove - are these people that you're talking to on the street residents of the street because of their investment experience? Looks like you who are the kid here. No on on your street would have predicted even this run up by Wave, nor would they admit to knowing anything about a Wave/Intel relationship prior to last week.
However, the people that live on this street know all about what's going on with this stock. That's why many of us are already making money. You go talk to whomever you want. It's your investment decision, and it's your money. Just make sure your street friends know what they're talking about.
Happy Investing!

wash68 - at 60 years old, I would not have them bet the farm on any one-single thing. But that's just my opinion. Although I feel Wave is a great investment, it should not be a make or break retirement strategy for someone 60 years old, by itself.
Just my two cents
Tampa123
Anyone care to opine on why we see so many sell orders (red) on Thompson, and not any Buy order (blue arrows)?
T123
zakrosian - Just to put your mind at rest once and for all, if Wave needs the money, I'll give em some of mine.
T123
zarkosian - You've really ansewered your own question.
Without knowing much about Wave, you'd at least have to assume that INTEL, who knows everything about Wave (you can bet) has confidence enough that they'll be around to sign a deal. If financing was a major (not minor) issue, I can assure you that companies like Intel do not ink deals with companies that might be around.
Therefore, our due-dilligence is meaningless compared to the likes of Intel, IBM, Infineon, etc.
Wouldn't you agree?
T123
To everyone....
Listen - the fox is now known to be in the hen-house. To that end, all of the TCG partners have now allowed Wave to stand up and be recognized by the general public. IMO, that means that the free digital content people are also seeing this news, and the attention Wave is getting. For Wave's behemouth partners to just allow Wave to emerge with only a little bit of news, and or little or no support is not logical.
Now that the cat's out of the bag it appears to me that it needs to gain significant momentum, both publicly on Wall Street, and also in ways that implies that the public wants this to happen.
Otherwise, think of the alternative.

When is the SHM? What date was settled on?
I am simply floored by the volume. There's no other way to say it.
