Except this article--written on January 23 2005---contains FACTS that are no longer true 4+ years later--like the price of the stock that shows as $.22, the companies mentioned, the alliances, etc. etc. It's just an old article---no longer true.

Folgendes aus einem Newsletter :
This stock`s HUGE recent move-more than TRIPLING in three
months-is just the beginning.
What triggered this first jump on the way to our $5 forecast price by 2007 for this 22-cent stock aktuell $.24? The company recently announced the startup of their PaperClick registry with Fortune 500 company Science Applications International.
When Vodaphone, with 40 million users, starts offering the
service-and Cingular, Deutche Telecom and Verizon climb on the bandwagon-it`s a $1 stock.
That`s a five-bagger from here!!!!
After a likely deal with Microsoft or Google, it`s a $2 stock. That`s a ten-bagger!!!!
So if you have ANY risk capital lying around,
take a good hard look at this one NOW!
Obviously, this is NOT a stock you sink a lot of cash into. It ain`t some income play. And if you`re not playing with money you can afford to lose, stay the heck away!
Remember Network Solutions, the company that operated the Internet domain registration system?
They were owned by SAIC -- a billion-dollar, privately held
technology company, which later sold Network Solutions to VeriSign
for $12 BILLION.
SAIC and [Neomedia] are purportedly working together to form the NEXT Network Solutions -- a place where you can register your bar codes to connect to a URL you own.
And this keyword ownership business is THE REASON to own as much of this stock as you can.
Owning barcode URLs takes you, the consumer, exactly where the marketer wants. NOT to Google or some other search site that has 10 to 12 different options.
This is a HUGE advantage for marketers.
As to consumers, this company`s "PaperClick" technology makes searching -- and getting exactly where you want to go -- quick and easy. Local Internet search will fast become the holy grail of using your phone or PDA or Blackberry-type device. It`ll make the Yellow Pages obsolete and end wasted time on the phone or endless clicking on the Web.
You say, "Nearest paint store." You say, "Highest rated golf course"...and you go right to the data you want -- and then use voice or Internet to complete the transaction.
Google gets rich selling marketers "keywords" that take Internet searchers to a list of links.
[Neomedia]will get RICHER by selling the exclusive use of a company`s trademark, a "keyword" embedded in a unique barcode and, eventually, through use of a voice-enabled browser.
This firm`s technology takes the whole keyword concept and makes it simpler and better -- for consumer and marketer alike.
Someone searching for "Yankees tickets" on Google gets blasted with about 700,000 responses!
But if a marketer owns the voice URL using this company`s breakthrough technology, every single inquiry goes to them.
A businessman`s dream! One that anyone with any business sense will gladly pay a ton of money for. And that`s why [Neomedia] just may hold the winning cards in the high-stakes game of mobile commerce. . . .
A quote from Bill Gates in India`s TechTree, reporting on an interview with a German newspaper, on his vision for mobile phones:
"With cell phones, we will be able to read bar codes to retrieve information about a certain product. With a camera phone we will be able to translate a restaurant menu in a foreign country."
Bill gets it -- and this company`s intellectual property is required for his vision.
And the licensing wave has just started. Intel has just signed an agreement to embed this functionality into its new smart wireless handset chips. They felt, as I do, that they HAD to have the functionality for their chips and chose to license rather than re-create.
Microsoft is next -- they HAVE to get a jump on Palm and other handset operating system software vendors to gain ANY traction in that game.
This is by NO measure a sure thing. But it is the closest thing I`ve ever seen to getting in on the ground floor of a transformational technology before the rest of the world catches on.
The full realization of this fortune-builder is still years away as the bar code and voice URL infrastructure rolls out. But look how fast camera phones have taken over the cell phone world.
===============
Meet the "Prosumer"
===============
That`s our name for the new consumer, who uses the Internet to shop and gather information -- it`s the fastest growing mass-market segment in the world, according to a market strategist at Procter &
Gamble.
And P&G -- with 16,000 bar codes -- takes this 20-million-person (and mushrooming) market very, very seriously.
It`s good to know that [Neomedia] is the key link to
the Prosumer market? What`s more, using directed search is the most cost-effective market to reach them thanks to pay-for-performance Internet search.
And that`s the new killer application -- direct access
to the Prosumer market WITHOUT going through the search engine multi-click environment.
Up to now, the only stumbling block to getting this bar code service to market has been the need for zoom lenses on cell phones. But now, that is happening, too.
Our research shows that 50% of cell phones with cameras will have zoom functions this year, while the other 50% will come by 2006. EVERY phone maker has upgrade plans to zoom lenses -- it would be suicide not to upgrade to match their competitors.
That`s why we believe Microsoft`s new cell phone operating system, called Aura, will HAVE to license [Neomedia`s]patents. The rest will follow -- and then the barcode URL domain rush begins like the one we had with URLs for the World Wide Web.
In Japan (where this company`s patents do not apply) they are already using bar code URLs with camera enable cell phones.
It is only a matter of time and patience before this bar code and voice code registration machine begins to GUSH cash flow and push this stock incredibly higher.
It`s a sure thing that the Prosumer market is going to continue to
grow. And they are going to use bar codes, and eventually voice URLs, to pro-sume.
The only question for [Neomedia]is this: Will it survive long enough with its limited financial strength to capitalize on the vision formulated and patented 15 to 20 years ago.
With search engine advertising growing so quickly, and prosumers becoming more and more valuable to marketers EVERY DAY, my bet is that this firm WILL live to see its dream realized.
It will take guts, patience, and tolerance for wild daily and weekly gyrations in the stock. But if you`re willing to live with the volatility, this stock truly has incredible potential.
I can`t guarantee your profits on this pick. It`s a fledgling company that still faces a number of obstacles.
