DABOSS all is possible .BTW the airline ? doesn't contract directly with EDIG .The IFE platform ,yes has potential .Then ,we must condider the finacial state of affairs ,that face the airlines . Still to buy the IFE portable players will take capital .The airlines are facing capital shortages with less passenger miles YTD ,rising fuel costs ,ie .The airlines will decide whether they will receive a ROI ,from a cost expense for IFE products .
We still have no clue who the airline is & how many units they have under a contract with their FAA approved vendor .
With regards to Fijitsu 10 /Eclipse .Let us see what comes of this ,first. The auto industry didn't have a very good profit year in 2002 .Giving 0% finanacing & rebates harmed their bottom lines . Best to follow the money here to see what 2003 brings to the auto mfgs .
As far as DivX is concerned ,wasn't there supposed to be a product release in the last physcal qtr of this year ?
Looking for possibilities is fine .bringing them to fruition & profitability is what EDIG must do .JMHO
OZ/DABOSS --OZ your correct .This market has established EDIG's pps & will continue to do so, based not on possibilities; but realities of earnings ,in hand & the growth of those earnings .
Again ,sorry for the double post .Don't know how this happens.
OZ --I agree with your post . Todays market physe is very much different than the rah rah years of the late 90's . What with 2003 economic forecasts ranging from a average 2.5 GNP increase ,here in the USA ,to world wide deflation , any company must show performance ,to gain market & street appeal .Possibilities alone simply won't cut the mustard.
EDIG is no different than other companies facing 2003 .What is different tho is that EDIG must become profitable or ,we don't want the or . Imo ,this is a long up hill fight for EDIG

Sentinel I agree with your rational .Then again ,PR releases that EDIG has inked profit bareing contracts would do wonders . Looking toward CES with guarded optimism .
Oops --sorry folks ,for double posting .eom
zaeus LOL ;but Hiliary is still here & looks like a presidential candidate in 2008 . Personally ,I wouldn't vote for her for dog catcher .But realistically ,she has proven she can win & gain powers in the US Senate .What's next ? Only time will tell .
FWIW taking responsibility for ones actions is a true sign of maturity .

Packers ,Pres Bush has gone on record that the economy is strengthening .He will present a stimulus plan to congress,in his State of the Nation address ,to shore up jobs .Now that the republicans have control of congress ,the stimulus plan ,should be a shoe in ,this year . Thus ,the health of the general economy should improve.
With the above in mind, that should impact consumer buying ,favorably .Thus ,EDIG should benefit ,providing that contracts are signed . It would be wonderfull to have a solid contract or two ,with financials attached ,announced because of CES . Let's see what develops.
D. Inkie --I will wait the out come of CES . Would you in turn wait for the same ? Management can't keep talking about what they have going on .They can't keep selling shelf shares .
There is a time that needs to end & a turn in events to place edig on a profitable course . Think that any one who owns shares in this company ,whether short term or long term ,wants the company to move forward .
JMHO
jtdiii --in respect for most posters here ,I have stayed away .What is absurd is that no one can or imo knows the next step There is a whole lot of conjecture going on here . There are no "facts' to back up any claims, of what will seem to happen .All we have are facts about the past .
There is absolutely No reason ,that I want to see EDIG fail .However,"based" on the past performance record ,I have rather serious doubts going forward .But ,let the dice roll .
Like you say ,give management the chance to perform ,during this years CES .Thats a given . Let them show us their metal .
Packers --thats the truth . If micro os was so hot ,then why hasn't any major oem used it & announced it ? The fact that no major oem didn't include the micro os is the bottom line reason ,for edig managements decision to get into retail mfg .Then came the appointment of Jim Collier as COO & then promoted to Pres
& COO ,by Fred Falk ,ie .
Can we accurately say that ,management & only management made all these decisions .
The same management ,could have gone to their common share holders & offered to sell preferred stock . This method was recommended by several common share holders to management .
I will leave the conclusion reasoning to others .Go EDIG JMHO
I have read todays posts . Unfortunately ,there is no direct relationship in the posts ;which would tie EDIG to profitability .
There is however a lot of guessing about what edig will do . Would be nice if some of these guesses turned into fruition .
CES is imo ,the last chance for edig to prove to the Street ,that they can announce real contracts tied with financial details .
Let us all trust that this actually happens .
Dick -- can't help you . You have set or allowed to be set ,into your head ,what hype there is left . You & no one else will know what happens ,when it happens .
Additionally ,Dick you seemed to me to be a person (into your 70's ) ,who would ,from life's experiences ,would understand anothers point of view .However, you have placed your self on record ,of just the opposite .
Yes,I made a prior error in judgement about you . My mistake .However , there are insecurities that you now illustrate . I won't offer assistance because ,in my opinion ,you would take it totally opposite, as it was meant .
Please don't answer this post .Because ,I will NOT carry on any further banter .You have my opinion
tolstoy seems to have enjoyed your personal knock --hope he enjoys the problems
Packers yes ,whether it be edig or IBM or Msft or any other company founded in the USA , management has a fudiciary responsibility to their share holders ,to increase their net worth in the stock .
Having said this ,then the current management has never done its fudiciary duties .Thus ,since factually management has not done its duty toward the share holders ,what makes people believe that the same management has the "Vision" to change course .
This is the sum of reasons ,why I have placed my shares for sale .Now ,I am hopeing that the CES hype generated by PRs from EDIG ,will give me the pps .
Whether ,they admit to it or not there are many share holders who will be doing the same thing .Thus ,the ranks on these chat room boards ,about edig will shrink further . All imho .
Imo" Vision" in EDIG's case is using the Ben Franklin method ,when making a decision .Whether one calls it the Ben Franklin method or the T method ,it remains the same .
Ben Franlin simply would list All the positives on one side & All the negatives on the other side . Depending which side out weighed the other ,Ben Franklin made his decisions based on the weighting factor
Wouldn't this board agree that Ben Franklins decisions were wise .
OT very thoughtfull eom
very thoughtfull
OT To those of us who have been sujected, to the unrelentless personal attacks ,of those we know about ,let me add :
THERE IS NO WAY THAT THEY WILL ESCAPE THEIR DUE JUSTICE !!!
OT doni do you have unlimited time ? if the shoe fits make sure you wear it .Hope this helps . BTW talking about antagonistic remarks --try looking else where --toward you & around you .
OT gernb this also may sound to you as being hokey ;but what is your house made of ? Those of us who know the answer --well hope you see my point
OT gernb this also may sound to you as being hokey ;but what is your house made of ? Those of us who know the answer --well hope you see my point
OT Interesting how human nature draws the lines in the sand .
What I find concerning is as our nation looks toward the grim reaper of war ,there are those of us who look away .
doni --whatever you want to think & say ;but Bless your heart also .
gernb1 same to you & Bless Your Heart .eom
OT Bill & Don --here I go using the word ,"hoped" that you would understand a sincere message . However , in my opinion ,no matter how I phrased it ,you 2 would find fault . Further ,is it coincidence that you both riddled me with your barrage together ?
It is not I who need to see what you created .But you who will look in the mirror each & every day .Enjoy
Hey every one ,my resounding Wish for a Very Happy ,Healthy & Peacefull New Year .
My personal prayer :
Dear God Almighty ,please forgive me for those I might have injured in thought ,word or deed .
Dear God ,please help those who are the unfotunate ,homeless ,hungry & hurting in this world .Please Protect this nation founded under You .
Amen
WOW !!! ????? eom
Hollywoodhills --the reason that my limit orders have been placed is because I have little trust left, for the present management .Tho ,I will sell most of our position ,I will maintain shares to peek my interest in how this saga,finally rolls out .
Have you noticed, the lack in presence of other either recent past or those SHs who have left permently ?
HotRodHands /HollywoodHills ,et al . Imo the reason why my recommendation was not considered for the purchase of preferred shares, by the common share holders ,of record is because managemnt either owed or owed&wanted to repay past & or future favors .What favors could we give them ? Although ,our money is the same as theirs .Simply pass this thought out FWIW .
JimC you have said that you diagreed with management in the past . Thus ,what is to prevent management from selling more of the shelf shares below the .20 threshold ? The reason I ask your opinion is that it certainly hasn't stoped them until now .
db24 it seems to me that you would like no one to question managements motives . Is that the way of a free democracy,on this board? In business ,it is necessary to take the good with the bad .This stock ,it's management ,it's share holders & it's business partners are no different .
If you are searching for the "perfect" world of stocks ,then please don't look for it on this planet .
FWIW I will read what every one posts ,including you .However ,I make my own investment decisions .One thing is for sure ,investing in EDIG or any other penny (micro) stock is "NOT" for the weak in knowledge,market savvy & wallet .It is also not recommended for those whose disposition is a see saw .
Dean --here is one to ya .That,s a welcome thought
Packers On target . Well as I have said ,the facts speak plainly . They are on their own .I have no resentment toward the vast majority of those ,who have expressed their opinions in a civil way .There are several & we know who they are ,that lack self control .
So let the chips fall as they will . The CES will serve my purposes well . Looking for a pps increase ;but ,have no clue yet how high .Watch the PRs out of Poway .
Now onto more delightfull endeavors
Tenderloin --Bravo eom
Inkie -- hey bud .A new board huh !!! eom
