a run to $0.01 - $0.015 is very feasible with strong Q1. Biggest question I have is still VGR Media - not mentioned in letter to shareholders and something's up with those other identical sites. Hope they are not moving revenue away from VGR to one of those other companies as I seriously doubt that would be legal, never mind ethical.

One of these days we will get the markman and i truly believe that will be a pivotal moment. in the meantime Hudson keeps selling and so does the people tired of waiting. all in all, excluding hudson, volume is minimal

Tesla Motors Inc (TSLA) Home Battery Product Could Be A Big Hit, According To Bidness Etc Survey
Research conducted by Bidness Etc shows Tesla’s home battery product may actually represent more business potential than some analysts believe

Tesla Earnings Beat Could Drive a 10%-Plus Short Squeeze
TSLA stock charts look strong after recent rally
http://investorplace.com/2015/05/tesla-earnings-tsla-stock-short-squeeze/#.VUj6GyvF8RA
Jefferies issued a "buy" rating with a $350 price target on shares of Tesla, saying concerns about China sales are overblown. Analysts pointed to its detailed consumer survey that showed Tesla could sell at least 500,000 cars per year by 2020.
The firm added that Tesla has a distinct competitive advantage in batteries.

watching the market since they got their shares
they got 8M shares in the settlement, i estimate they have sold 3M thus far
i would estimate 5M - 1M per month so could take 5 months unless the price spikes
HUDSON DUMPING WDDD AGAIN - RIGHT ON SCHEDULE
Not sure this is what Tesla is doing. This was a post by others and there's also a reference to a patent filing. Then there's some good arguments below for what the actual improvements might be. I'm sure Tesla is hard at work trying to improve both charge time and distance. Hopefully we learn more over the next week or so.
REH
if that's the case we should be able to get the range close to 1,000 miles - that would surely be extremely positive

OTC will show you all historic data but all I am saying is that OTC shows $966K for Q1 2014 revenues so if they are passed that we should expect somewhere north of $1M. I'd be disappointed with $1.5M
Looks to me that Q1 2014 Revenues were $966K - that is what OTC Markets show (click quarterly): http://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/VPOR/financials#
chart hereinsert-text-here
No mention of VGR Media in latest letter to shareholders yet in the February letter Dror stated:
"Ending Our Cycle of Debt Financing: As stated, based on the strength of our cash position, we have tried to pay down several convertible promissory notes to avoid their conversion into stock. And we will continue to do so. The recent, rapid returns of our new subsidiary, VGR Media, Inc., will help us pay down about $200,000 in debt this month. As I have said before, we believe that by late in the first quarter or latest, early second quarter, we will have reduced our debt burden by 90% or will have completely eliminated it. As a result of the Company’s growth, going forward we believe that we can cease the use of convertible debt financing to fund our operations and expansion."
From the looks of the 10K VPOR paid 180M shares for VGR Media (100,000,000 Series B Preferred that converts to common 1/1,800) - see http://vaporgroup.com/vapor-group-inc-vpor-provides-additional-information-use-preferred-stock-issued-acquisition-vgr-media-inc/
The latest letter to shareholders also state they they are past Q1 2014 revenues but those were only about $960K and long before VGR Media was part.
I would also like to have an explanation on the relationship between these entities (two of them listing same phone number on two different websites)
VGR: http://www.vgr-media.com/about.html
Zeus: http://www.zeusmedia.org/about.html
Supremia: http://supremiamedia.com/about.htm
do we have the whole story and is it consistent?
What about VGR Media??
$WDDD bid stacking -markman soon?
$VPOR could see a huge move within 30-45 days IMHO

the plot thickens. sure would like Dror to comment on this
HOW COULD THEY NOT BE - TWO OF THE SITES ARE PRETTY MUCH IDENTICAL, THE TRADE SHOWS ARE IDENTICAL, THE PEOPLE THEY LOOK FOR ARE IDENTICAL - TOO MANY COINCIDENCES. NOT SAYING THIS IS A BAD THING BUT WHY WOULD THEY NOT INFORM THE PUBLIC ABOUT HAVING 3 ENTITIES/OFFICES AS OPPOSED TO 1. DOES BEG THE QUESTION ABOUT WHERE REVENUE IS RECORDED AND A FEW OTHER THINGS. THIS IS A PUBLIC COMPANY SO SOMETHING DROR SHOULD DEFINITELY COMMENT ON IMHO
I do realize that but compare these three pages - sure looks like the same company to me - look at the "Meet Us" down on the left side and "Careers" on the right:
VGR: http://www.vgr-media.com/about.html
Zeus: http://www.zeusmedia.org/about.html
Supremia: http://supremiamedia.com/about.htm (they have updated the trade shows, same positions under Careers)
So if this is all the same company why would they not all inform of that?
REH
also the same as Zeus Media: http://www.zeusmedia.org/about.html - that website looks like a copy of http://supremiamedia.com/contact.htm
not really sure what this means but will try to dig a little
nothing on Pacer - when the decision is ready that is where it will be posted - all will know at the same time
yes and the grammar is horrible. never mind that they misspelled Davie, Florida!
they just will take what they can and move on - they do not give a second thought about the potential future of Worlds. If they can hurt the company in the process they feel even better. They have done this a hundred times before and will a hundred times in the future with other companies. They are as low as it gets, 100% toxic!
That is how they (and other toxic funds) operate. They do not follow logic, they grab what they can as fast as they can and move on to the next sucker. 8M shares at 10 cents is still $800k with no cost attached. Seen it too many times.
REH
it is Hudson dumping 1M shares - could be a gift horse but that's up to Casper
I am just trying to point out that i see it even more positive than the article. Having been through some very similar cases prior and seeing the arguments/tactics on both sides sure helps.
1. Susman Godfrey, LLP taking the case on a contingency basis
2. Worlds practicing on their invention since conception and still ongoing with the Worldsplayer - http://www.worlds.net/Worlds/WorldsShaper_Overview.html
3. Judge Casper summary judgement ruling claiming Worlds own practice on their invention was the prior art due to patent office error in referencing the provisional application and thus moving the effective start date out in time beyond 12 months after provisional date - appealable issue - she could have used her discretion and allow the original date as this was clearly and admittedly an error on behalf of the USPTO and not Worlds.
4. USPTO acceptance of all 52 claims - see worlds patents here: http://www.worlds.net/patentinformation.html
5. Judge Casper's first patent case resulting in time being stretched for Markman ruling due to her goal of getting it right and avoid falling in appealable traps. we could expect a ruling at any moment now that we are 6 months beyond markman hearing
6. Markman will set a precedence as far as other infringers and if positive should bring these to the licensing/settlement table
7. Potential damages from this trial alone: $100-$500M. License fees, settlement from others could add a few hundred million
IMHO we can expect a favorable ruling and subsequent $1+ stock price. Then trial date and possible settlement but ACTV might decide to play the delay game in which case the stock will again suffer.
Just my opinion, do your own DD
except that their sole purpose was never licensing, they practiced on their invention. companies who's sole purpose is licensing are the companies being tagged as patent trolls.
well done with the low of the day being $0.0015
YOU SAID:
"If they developed the technology for the sole purpose of licensing it out to companies like Activision, what’s wrong with that? The patent system must provide incentive for monetizing innovation so innovation can keep happening at a rapid pace."
THEY DID NOT DO THAT, THEY DEVELOPED IT TO USE IT AND CAN THUS NOT BE LABELED A TROLL. THEY DID INDEED PRACTICE ON THEIR INVENTION. MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE.
I agree and based on my DD I am very much bullish to the point where i think we can leave the sub-penny's inside a short time.
We produce the highest quality e-liquids in the world and can prove it. Our e-liquids are unmatched by any competitor in terms of their purity, high quality, and the steps that we take to protect our customers. All our e-liquids are formulated and mixed exclusively in the U.S. by an FDA registered laboratory by degreed professionals, in accordance with cGMP guidelines (21 CFR part 111). All our e-liquid ingredients are quarantined before use, and must pass an independent, third party laboratory test for purity. All our key ingredients are United States Pharmacopeia ("USP") grade and kosher. We would never use diethylene glycol or toxic substances in any of our formulas. We don't believe that the FDA found any such substance in any of our e-liquids but found it in the e-liquid of one of our competitors who has less rigid standards. Our lab carefully tests each batch of our e-liquid by high pressure liquid chromatograph to verify that we have the right levels of ingredients. None of our competitors, bigger or smaller, go to the extreme of quality testing that we do. Our quality is a fundamental pillar of our competitive advantage. Because of all of this and because we know that we are the established benchmark standard in e-liquid purity and quality, we welcome future FDA jurisdiction over our category and their issuance of quality guidelines to the industry. It can only help to increase the confidence of our customers in our products quality and safety. When the forthcoming FDA standards arrive, we know that we will be able to easily meet or exceed them."

I believe you're right. IF they manage to pay off debt in short order they should also be able to retire a large number of shares now allocated for conversion. Combine this with revenue (and hopefully profit) growth and we will move north for certain. This is simple math.
If one believes:
Significant revenue growth
Profitability
Large volume of shares retired
No or very limited insider selling
New Distribution agreements coming
then at this price we are looking a gift horse right in the mouth.
I guess Q1 report will show us the landscape
