two things 1 when i did a seach at walmat.com the second thing that comes up is the shield, But before you get too crazy keep a little perspective take a look at all the other colorful choices a younger consumer has to choose from. A businessman is not going to pull out an IPhone with a bright blue or purple cover, which brings me to my other point.
What kind of person shops at Wal-Mart? It is not higher end (Best Buy) it is lower end lower income. In our economic times when people are trading down to Wal-Mart do you think they are going to change plans to a plan that is double so they can access the Internet in mass hard to believe I did not follow Wal-Mart’s last CC but if I do remember it was weak, like all retail.
Not to say that could not happen just think about it before you mortgage the farm (or do mortgage the farm and get in line for your bailout)
Seems to me even with all the thoughts of YA all being crooks that if they were not forking over cash ( sure at a good return) the doors would have been shut some time ago. I know no one likes the return YA is getting, but it also seems like they are taking all the risk.
I do not think anyone on this board has the cash to ( or the mind to ) put up to keep the lights on and airline tickets being bought
or am I off base?
Thanks Daniel, could you tell us if many Germans are paying for the service to their phones to read this code?
That is up on a down day and a down market
Is it just me but..I was wondering just who do they think they are going to sell all those shares to? did I miss something? Pretty sure even if someone had the cash after the down turn who is in the mood to buy in to this kind of risk??? anyone anyone??
The start of the starting
The few post I have done here have pointed out that data plans cost too much. Until they came down neom was never going anyplace in the USA. The IPhone started it but still too much money.
Well today I saw Sprint was jumping in and (if the Government does not take that over too) others will soon follow dropping the price as the free market works (PS don’t tell Obama)
Sprint now has a 100.00 every thing data plan because they were losing too much money. We know as more Joe the plumbers get this plan the add dollars will follow, our stock goes up and we can all take a nice long vacation on a off shore Island for the rest of our lives or so (if anything is left after the come new capital gains tax! But, it seems the righteous wind is now turning to our backs so we can think about seeing this stock move (up for a change).

Do not forget the end user will have to make more in scans then the price of the phone and the monthly charge to get on the net
They will buy web access, My wife (who helps me look twice before spending money) would even agree with me getting an Iphone and ATTs online phone service, IF i could get back the $30 ATT charges in coupons ect..from scan. That would make the thing pay for itself. Hmm..I wonder where my nearest Apple store is?
Holy smokes! I have point out here there is (was) no place to even use our reader unless one lived overseas (or ordered pizza) now I have seem two with the new partnership. Amazing, this is what needed to be done. No point in having your reader on every phone in the USA if there was no place to use it. Hmm.....this may work after all!
TO NO ONE
Here is food for thought and I have no answer for it. Perhaps everyone one this board has the Neo reader down loaded on their phone, pay the rip off prices the carry charges to have a “data” plan and use it all the time to scan code to see web pages, BUT I doubt it since there are no codes to scan in this county (other then Papa”s) As I pointed out early in a post a friend could not even try the damm reader because there is not place to use it! SO… it comes out tomorrow on every phone in the USA. I am still not paying the price my carrier wants and there is no code to read anyway. . This industry is not even in infancy in this county. Sure one day all the marketers will know all about it and it will not cost an arm and a leg to have a data plan MY POINT (if there is one) is we still have a long long way to go.
Can someone using small words explain to an amateur the YA converting thing? Well just the part if the share price is low over the past 30 days it is better for them? (At least that is what I thought I read in a post, am I even getting this right?) I have seen a “painting of the tape up, would that help or hurt them.
If I am completely off base and have this all wrong u can say that too
Thanks
it may be just me, but I can not get it to load any hints or can someone post a summery of what it says Thanks
that is kind of what I have been thinking a chicken or egg thing. It seems codes are all over in Japan and maybe China (which was why an early PR was so exciting to me I did buy) and they seem to have code and pay the carrier the price asked for online phone hook up (which I will not) Thanks (come on Domino's)
yes "EDGE" is slower Now anyone know of a place a friend can try her new reader on the Iphone ? Thanks
can I have some thoughts on this
We have chicken egg problem. A friend of mine just bought an iphone. I told him to down load our reader, he did. NOW where do he use it? Until some one (Papa john) comes up with codes to scan it is just wasted hard drive space.
Now does anyone know a few places I have my friend point the Iphone to scan things?
Thanks
Unless u think the rug will get pull out from under our feet..
I have a hard time seeing the price going down after it "seems" we have made deals and (heaven forbid) may may make money one day in the near tream. What better time then now? the Iphone would have been nice, but we don't use phones for code here yet...they do in the East and look where the "deals" were made. Thank about it if you beleve we are in the right space
I have my full position in on this stock now (last 100000 shares today) so I don’t mind sharing this as I Have not seen it as of yet. It fits with what I have said today in my other post under "being early to this party of using the phone as Internet hook up"
It is what how Google is changing gear in China
http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601080&sid=aqbpFHb9v78I&refer=asia
As I see it, this is the start of the party here in the USA. Many here have been very early to that party and are not happy about the wait.
OK so what I saying? This should popularize the idea of using your cell phone in this manor. It seems to be a new idea to many or just not even on the radar of most that a phone can be used for such a thing ( all of my family). Two things need to happen now. One is we need to keep from running out of money. 2 a patent answer in our favor would sew up much for us.
If the patent thing does not work out and we can get a cash flow (any cash flow) before we go BK then at least others (att google who ever) will follow the lead of Apple. Consolidations will happen and we will get something for our stock. Again this is how I see it.
Doc, glad to see your positive self has comeback, don’t get sucked it the negative flow. If one believes Chip is smart enough to right this ship and get it heading in the right direction, one would think he would have his options price at half of what the stock could get to. If one does not believe he is smart enough then that person should sell and put cash in Wal-Mart (this in not a recommendation to buy or sell securities)
~When the market runs on emotion…I will that the other side of that trade
Ok so who am I? I heard about neom on a talk show over 2 years ago. I saw it had patients and I picked it up as 5% out 10% of my speculative stock diversification (the other 5% is in a flying car company with patents and spin offs) I mostly read the hub to see what new in this space. Infrastructure stocks can make money, are not exciting and cutting edge. I have not posted before because I have nothing to add and did not want to interrupt all the negativity to ensure I got my prices.
I laughed when I read that schedule don’t change often. My wife takes a train to work and just complained to me last week that they are always printing new schedule sometimes three a month. She would use a code if they had it, but the Government sector in not known for it innovative thinking. (the train is heavily subsidized)
