Gilga - you have to open a message from the person (at least I did), then put your cursor over the name, then get the number, then put it into the link ucansee posted a while back - if you don't have that link then let me know I will get it for you
I am at least as technologically challenged as you are - I can't operate my VCR - what am I doing in this stock ? LOL
bmpskr - you have PM.
bmpskr - as usual I am just poking at you - re your comment of certain extinction. I hope your shares become worth millions - and, if IFE and the tangetial aspects of it come into EDIG's fold, I suspect they will.
LL
Bmpskr - I disagree with your assessment of the reasons for the current pps, but definitely agree with your observation about the cash crunch and OEMs. As to a major move up in the next few weeks, who knows?
LL
GoSilver - I agree with you 1000%. Whatever comes of the O1000/Digitalway adventure is great, but whatever comes of IFE and all the potential related business/credibility could be mammoth. When it begins coming to fruition is when I well begin to get excited.
Thanks for the post and any further thoughts/info you have.
LL
what a joke - NAMEquoit is now IGNORED FROM MY COMPUTER also.
Gilga - compliments of emit and tin.

LOL - that's funny, I have to admit. Also, you have to admit that individuals and families have widely varying Xmas budgets, some of which are higher than yours.
thanks emit - also for your posts - most of which are so far over my head I would need D.Inkies rocket to get to them! LOL
LOL - basher.
oz - thanks for taking a shot at it.
LL
Name - how do I ignore you? Thanks in advance.
ucansee - very nice perspective IMO. LL
It's just one more step along the way - not a reason for wild joy and jumping in the streets, but certainly not a reason for jaundice and negativism either. All in all, a postive for EDIG and for us.
LL
string - I agree with your assessment - I think it just depends on the scope of the negotiations and if there are other OEMs, local or global, involved. Given the slow state of the CE market, however, one would think that parties on both sides would be eager to garner as much revenue and marketing/publicity as possible.
LL
Regardless of the circumstances of the production, creation, etc. of this cover, it appears EDIG had SOME notice since it is an updated Odyssey and updated info. Let's hope they are positioned to take close to maximum advantage of it.
The resulting publicity (and furor on the message boards !) cannot help but advance various other EDIG causes and negotiations for US and foreign manufacturing, retail placement (if desired) and increase their stature/strengthen negotiation positions in talks with airlines, movie studios, video, games, music, etc.
Re managing short term and long term expectations, I don't expect them to do this perfectly, but I think this moves the graph higher regarding their ability to get the job done and the resultant pps - again, my time table is mid 2005 but this is one more reason I am becoming increasingly comfortable with that.
Good luck to all. It's a vastly different feeling than that which pervaded this virtual community several weeks ago.
LL
Name - to what clowns are you referring? By the way, I think db was definitely, and accurately, pointing at you.
LL
BD - I respectfully disagree - I don't think we were in trouble before the article, and I think things are improved by its publication. In fact, my reading of the tea leaves is that things have been improving since before the SHM and the SHM confirmed that.
JMO, not pumping, not hyping, but having REAL trouble understanding the continued negative interpretations of what is happening with this company.
LL
I think it is important to set expectations for EDIG and for this Parade deal. this is but one step along the way. I don't believe EDIG's success is going to be a straight line graph, but will continue to be up and down - the highs will be higher and the lows lower as we proceed.
If someone expects the stock to run to $24 in the next month, I would say that is unrealistic. If someone expects it to do so over the next 3 years, I would say that is more plausible.
My time frame is mid 2005 - I believe the graph will be significantly higher by that time.
I say all this in order to echo BlackDog's cautionary comments that it is good not to get too caught up in any single event or EDIG's management of it. The gestalt of all these efforts will provide the desired result, IMO, but not today, and not this month.
A lot of people made a lot of decisions based on emotion over the last month or so. I have found that emotional investment decisions are usually not my best ones. All just my opinion and none of which is meant to detract from my view that I believe important and significant events are taking place at EDIG - and NOT just in the O1000 area.
LL
Hans - brings a smile to my face.
gilga - LOL - the question I am waiting to have answered is , when will WWallace buy back and what will he have to say for himself after trying to scare shareholders - oh yeah - he will reappear under a new name - perhaps Rob Roy?
LL
wpv - it is dead - has been the subject of a number of posts and jokes - whether its demise is permanent no one knows -
later
WPV - perhaps thte weight of our combined ignores has sunk RB. LOL
name - Both of you guys make good points. I agree with Tolstoy this is great for everyone and for the company. However, I will get excited when we are getting near the $10 mark, not the $1.00 mark. Having said that, we've got to start from where we are!
Best wishes,
LL
BD - post of the year. LOL
packers - take a nap.//
But Whatever - unfortunately for Ernest, he didn't do much sober and definitely didn't keep his mouth shut. Why don't you set an example for him?
LL
timf - I'm cracking up. Thanks for the post. I, of course, am very optimistic about what is happening, and I think this o100 thing is great but pales in comparison to some of the stuff you are talking about. I wonder how many movie studios EDIG is talking with; how many airlines?
But Anyway is either a basher or trader or both, and just running a more sophisticated version of RB posting warfare.
Timf, thanks for the laugh.
LL
Damn - U Da Dog!
I wouldn't even be surprise if other European and/or US OEMs are in the mix somehow.//
lickily - those are the matters which are the subject of negotiation between EDIG and Digitalway, no doubt. It's happening, just let it happen.
And don't forget what is probably going to dwarf all this which is IFE, movies, airlines, video games, music, etc, etc, etc
LL
BD - I think If EDI had had unfettered resources JC would have been perfect for us - unfortunately, we didn't, and he wasn't. FF's presentation/sales skills are not his forte, agreed.
LL
Arkie - tongue in cheek - sorry.
BD - this dog's for you.
http://www.cnn.com/2002/TECH/science/11/21/coolsc.dogorigin/index.html
Arkie - if you don't like it sell and move on. LOL
marc - sorry - I am very serious about what I am posting today.
my apologies.
LL
arkie - I think you have just fallen period and can't get up high enough to see what is going on.
LL
BD thanks- So lots of inventory which is ranked ABOVE the IPOD on MP3's site. Sweet.
LL
That is the news for the myopic board members. For those with any vision at all news is occurring on a daily basis. The table is being set, the guest are arriving. Who will be able to understand that the invitations are being issued?
And part of the good news IS that FF is in charge, in my opinion.
LL
It's my understanding EDIG has a bunch of Treo 15's to sell. Is this the result of the failed $2.6 million deal? Were they built with that expectation in mind?
Just wondering - haven't really investigated it.
Has WWallace bought back in yet? LOL
