As would I...via email or PM.
Cheers
It made perfect sense to me...
Just fixed a child-proofing latch to the fridge. We'll see how smart she is.
LOL!
We've discovered that our beautiful Border collie has figured out how to open the fridge.
Damn.
There goes the hamburger destined for lasagna and the rest of the roast beef.
what smoke and mirrors? documentation please.
Yeah. Ya can't trust those damn Swiss.
Rico-o-o-o-o-o-la-a-a-a-a
I think it would be okay, in a profiling sense, to dis-trust the Chinese government more than the Swiss.
This is just incredible.

Suspect Arrested in JonBenet Ramsey Case
By CATHERINE TSAI
Associated Press Writer
BOULDER, Colo. (AP) -- A former schoolteacher was arrested Wednesday in Thailand in the slaying of 6-year-old beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey - a surprise breakthrough in a lurid, decade-old murder mystery that had cast a cloud of suspicion over her parents.
Ramsey family attorney Lin Wood identified the suspect as John Mark Karr, 41. Federal officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, confirmed the name, and one law enforcement official told The Associated Press that Boulder police had tracked him down online.
The head of Thailand immigration police said Thursday that Karr admitted to the killing after he was arrested at his downtown Bangkok apartment Wednesday night. Karr arrived in Bangkok on June 6 from Malaysia to look for a teaching job, Lt. Gen. Suwat Tumrongsiskul told The Associated Press.
I thought these guys were the next sliced bread for gaming...all I see on their website is a **yawn** lapboard.
The "Gaming Service" says The Phantom Game Service is anticipated to be the first end-to-end, on-demand game service...
It's been "anticipated" for years now. When will it actually fly?
Nasdaq Panel Approves the Continued Listing of Wave System's Common Stock on The Nasdaq Global Market
Thursday August 10, 9:34 am ET
LEE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 10, 2006--Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ: WAVX - News) announced today that it has received notification from the Listing Qualifications Panel of The Nasdaq Stock Market of the Panel's decision to continue the listing of Wave's common stock on the Nasdaq Global Market (formerly called the Nasdaq National Market). The decision followed Wave's regaining compliance with Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4450(b)(4) which requires a minimum bid price of $1.00 per share. Wave completed a 1-for-3 reverse split of its common stock, effective close of business on July 25, 2006, which had the effect of enabling the Company to regain compliance with the $1.00 minimum bid price rule.

The "WAVXD has failed to meet NASDAQ Global Market continued listing requirement(s)." tag on Yahoo
...
...
IS GONE
So by your calcs, BE by Christmas...
interesting.
(edit) BE week, not a BE quarter.
By my count, we should be getting rid of that annoying "WAVXD has failed to meet NASDAQ Global Market continued listing requirement(s)." tag on Yahoo any day now, right?
I thought the 'D' was only because of the reverse split...
I could be wrong.
...and while it is, technically, winter here, it's not really winter.
I was scooping leaves out of the pool last weekend and Mynx plopped herself in the bed of purple-eyed daisies and had a catnap (if you'll excuse the term)
Uncle Vern, you are priceless...
The only number that I would have large difficulties with is the number (or percentage, take yor pick) of upgrades. I don't think it would be even half of that (and that still makes for some nice numbers)
Why, with these lovely prices and healthy volume, is the board so quiet?
At the risk of understating things, nice quarter.
Looking for continued strength over the year.
As Max Smart would say, "Missed it by that much"
One assumes that, equally, "up" paints will be disregarded also...
[edit] From the Naz:
"The NASDAQ® Official Closing Price (NOCP) is a process for identifying the NASDAQ market-specific closing price for NASDAQ-listed issues. The NOCP replaces the NASDAQ market-specific closing price that was based solely on the last reported NASDAQ trade. Subject to review by NASDAQ MarketWatch, the NOCP will equal the normalized price of the last trade reported to NASDAQ’s proprietary trade reporting system—Automated Confirmation Transaction ServiceSM (ACTSM—with a last sale eligible sale condition modifier as of 4:00:02 p.m., US Eastern Time. "Normalizing" the NOCP means it will be adjusted to the nearest prevailing inside quote whenever the last sale is reported away from the inside market. Market participants, data distributors and investors will be provided with the NOCP for all NASDAQ Global Select MarketSM, NASDAQ Global MarketSM and NASDAQ Capital MarketSM securities. "
I'm just slightly ahead of my time...
Actually, it's more a reflection of the crappiness of Yahoo...
I have one, and use it daily.
oops. That's what I get for posting late at night.
not 2 comma revs yet, although nice sequential gain -- almost 42% up
Ralph, I believe they were referring to the link on the Yahoo WAVXD page that says
WAVE SYSTEMS CORP Financials
EDGAR Online Financials (Fri 9:04am)
but in fact links to nothing...
Uncle Vern, thanks for posting this.
I've always follwed the 'gut feel' criteria with reverse splits, and the gut always said 'run away'.
This is eye-opening for me.
Cheers,
"dogmatic rhetoric"
Wasn't that a movie?
OT:I spoke/wrote too soon.
The Yahoo board exists.
If you really want to find it, it's there.
A moment of silence, please, for those poor gits that have been, in the past, compelled to post dozens of times a day (typically a cut-and-paste affair, with no new content since the last millenium).
The Yahoo WAVX board is gone. Poof. Vanished in a puff of acrid smoke.
WAVXD has no board (Who's that knocking on the door? Who's that ringing the bell?)
And, in a week or so when the symbol returns to WAVX, it wouldn't surprise me a bit if the yahoos at Yahoo (who were claiming a market cap in excess of 200million yesterday) have obliterated all of the old posts from that board.
So, a brief thought (really brief) for those poor sods. What are they doing to keep themselves busy today? Withdrawal is painful.
Well, I'm pleasantly surprised, and pleased to be wrong.
Well done Wave.
Looking at one of Snacks recent surveys a couple of questions come to mind...
What will the stock close at the 1st day of the split?
< 1.40 9 24
1.65 6 16
>= 1.80 5 13
1.60 5 13
1.75 3 8
1.50 2 5
1.55 2 5
1.45 1 2
170 1 2
1.70 1 2
No Answer 1 2
Which is the prudent thing to do (if you're going to do such a thing)
Snacks, bearing in mnd that the post split environment will have had a week or so to settle, a 2 comma quarter would definitely have me buying back in in a measured fashion..
Snacks, in all honesty, the post split repercussions are only oce facet in my decision making. I want to see the beef. Seagate and NTT need to prove true before I buy back in and honestly, if that happens I expect the price to be higher than it is now...
How will they prove true (to me)?
Revenues reported.
it's not post rev-split yet...
Understand Snack, but history and the odds are with me that the adjusted price post split will be lower...
Thanks for this (a bit of a trek for me to get there, and I'm not a sareholder of record at this point anyway)
While all of this looks positive (very positive) I think I'm safe waiting to see the impact on the SP of the RS, and more news from Seagate and NTT before I dive back in.
And if I miss a pop up, so be it.
Thanks again.
market cap or share price?
re: shares and the RS...the math works something like this (numbers used for clarity -- not actual authorised for Wave)
Suppose there were 10,000,000 authorised and 6,000,000 issued. There would be an additional 4,000,000 available for pipes, employee stock plans, etc.
A 1:4 RS would leave the authorised at 10,000,000, but reduce the issued to 1,500,000, leaving 8,500,000 available for future sales.
Potential dilution would, as a percentage, increase.
There is nothing inherently illegal or "wrong" with doing this, but it greatly increases the exposure to the shareholders.
