I forgot to send a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year present to the CHWM Team.
Their new name is brilliant.
Here's the link to their website
http://consolidatedholdingsworldwidemedia.com
Well, you have to give credit where credit is due.
These guys just filed a Form D and put in their own money.
Maybe they are believers.
I don't see a Forward Looking Statement; do you see a Forward Looking Statement?
I think CHWM is in a reflective period, as opposed to a forward looking period and their latest release reflects this contemplation on new directions as they move forward with their new name:
Consolidated Holdings Worldwide Media --- that's a long name but sure to be on EVERYONE's lips very, very soon.
Yahoo CHWM News Release - Do you see the Forward Looking Statement?

That's easy enough to clean up with a corrected release and a small apology!
Go Wi-MAX team! I mean Worldwide Entertainment Team!
You keep me entertained for sure! Worldwide Entertainment indeed. Now that's what I'm talking about, reflection, look at your strengths and MONETIZE them!
Okay, got a phone call about that "First Mover" situation. It seems that China Wi-Max is talking about going into the moving business. Not sure whether it is commercial or household but they might be looking at being called "First Movers." I am really glad to hear it, that means revenue. Low tech revenue, high tech revenue, who cares what kind of revenue. Revenue is revenue!!!
Wow, now that's what I like to see! Management on the ball.
These guys are so confident about their future they do not place the "FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT" in their press releases. See January 19, 2011, Press Release included below!
They are so certain about their futures they don't need Forward Looking Statements!!!
SEC --- watch out, you have some up and comers here!
First Movers, is what they call themselves. I am really excited about that one, but in what field are they First Movers? I am still scratching my head on that one.
--- and No Forward Looking Statement on their Press Release?
I love a man that believes in his plan!!!
But, wait, if you believe in your plan ... if you have that much confidence, that you do not have to use a Forward Looking Statement, is bill paying just around the corner? Oh, I do hope so!!!
That Four Million Dollar Investment, in the press release, I keep looking in the asset section and just don't find it?
Can You Find it Bankshot?
I get:
Intangible assets: $305K
Property and Equipment: $502
Hmmmmm, where is that investment, you know the $4M. Are they talking about USD?
I do find total current liabilities to be: $4,898,879.
I guess that $4.9M USD represents all those Corporate Promissory Notes they have put out there paying themselves, to support that Balance Sheet Entry of: Property and Equipment of $502K -- oh, and let's not forget the INTANGIBLE ASSETS!!! another $305K.
Whew, I am so confused here.
Maybe someone could explain all of this to me. I am just a poor redneck and I really need some smart person to explain how this works? I am thinking the $4M is NOT USD, but some other denomination? I mean, they did not actually way it was in USD, and most international companies are so careful about that one!!!
And I am so ignorant, would someone please tell me what an Intangible Asset is? It must be something really serious for $305k USD

Yeah, like maybe the Principals will pony up and pay their debts, or are those guys still waiting on someone else to pay their debts for them. If management believed this, really believed it, they would pay their debts.
If management really believe this was as real and as lucrative as they would have YOU believe, they would not be as tragically delinquent as they are in the Company's horrific and personally tragic debt resolution. Their debts carry with them matters of personal consequence to individuals. These are not vague unknown consequences of THEIR unpaid debts but rather issues with which they are fully acquainted and readily able to ignore while they fluff up Press Releases.
It is really hard to take these guys seriously with the horrific damage done by their promises and unpaid debts ... and Corporate Promissory Notes to themselves growing daily on top of shares diluted roughly one hundred percent in a year to get to this ONE POINT.
Believe me, shareholders have paid dearly for this sad little announcement.
"We believe we have a first mover advantage in deregulation opportunities in China, where the Internet and media distribution markets are now the fastest growing in the world."
If these guys are FIRST MOVERS in DEREGULATION OPPORTUNITIES -- which itself is most likely intentionally vague and very poorly conceived, then they need to learn to count.
The media market in China is seriously saturated already with companies that are traded on the Nasdaq here in the United States and well established inside China with the established China Media distribution contacts and preferences that will be extremely hard for CHWM to establish.
Who do these guys know in China? So far, it looks like no one.
If they execute on this deal like they have executed on Wi-MAX you will have a long, long wait. Don't hold your breath. This looks like an excellent exit point.
If you really believe they can pull this off, sell now and buy back it at $0.04.
I think it is time to take a cold hard look at each person who has served in management or on the Board of CHWM.
Let's analyze at their income from CHWM, their shares and their promissory notes.
Let's balance that with what CHWM has received from them.
When a Company has rocked on as long as this Company has with NO return, sometimes the right thing to do is to cancel the CPN's, cancel the shares, and start fresh.
At this point CHWM has 'legacy' costs and nothing to show.
We've seen on a fully diluted share basis roughly a 100% dilution over the past year. What have we received.
A good rule of thumb is cancel all shares to insiders that exceed 500,000. Cancel all the promissory notes to insiders and begin 2011 fresh.
Let's take a cold hard look at what each insider has contributed?
Ready?
I will put up a website that shares this information and let's get a press release out, get everyone's attention and move forward in making this a viable company without overwhelming legacy costs.
BankShot, could you do a FULLY DILUTED Common Share Count for us?
Third Quater - 10Q Notes: November 19, 2010: 21,216,115 of common stock.
A fully diluted common share review indicates in one year CHWM shares have been diluted by almost 100%.
24,569,043 at September 30, 2010
13,497,929 at September 30, 2009
Include if you would:
Warrants
Stock options
Convertible securities
My number is a bit different but I do NOT have all the relevant information. I thought you might!!!
I am excited, however, because I believe this shareholder dilution will produce an incredible value in the New Year. After listening to Eric Hager's interview, I am thinking I should get more shares, but I will have to get more shares, just to keep up with the dilution over the past year, not to mention all the progress over the past year! What a year for Wi-MAX!
Anyway, I am impressed that we do NOT have class of SUPER shareholders in the Preferred and these guys keep it all out front with the Common. They are surely a group of Honorable Guys, and so talented and working so hard. I am so excited to be a part of this Company, aren't you? They are putting SO MUCH into this Company, you can really tell how much THEY BELIEVE IN IT!
I am giving ALL my Friends and Family Shares in CHWM for Christmas! They do not know this yet but I am sure this will be a huge hit. We have a new tradition in Texas as well, we put a lottery ticket in everyone's stocking. My Friends and Family will find a Texas Lotto ticket AND shares of CHWM. That's what being Santa Clause is ALL ABOUT!
They might even offer you a special Friends and Family Deal - I am looking for one of those, I hope they call me real soon, because I surely want my friends and family to believe in this Company as much as the Management does - you know, make them rich, too, and all that.
Wi-MAX is our future. Hoping all those computer people will include that Wi-MAX chip, real soon.
Any word on that?
Oh, and Bankshot,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
So ready for this tax selling to be over in CHWM to see what the New Year will bring, with all those restricteds out there!
That was an exciting turn around yesterday, Luk!
Wow, 2,000 shares moved a stock twenty percent. That was really lucky that someone decided to take advantage of the all time low like that, don't you think?
We are really lucky to be in CHWM!
I am holding my breath for the big turn around you mentioned.
Thanks so much for alerting me to all the good things to come with CHWM!
CHWM Promotion!!!
SO MUCH POTENTIAL - DO THE RIGHT THING - AND GOOD THINGS FOLLOW!
IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO DO THE RIGHT THING. CAN CHWM DO THAT?
LET's ALL HOPE SO!
Very exciting. Could NOT find the disclosure, could you Luk? Whew, I got a different share number and a few other factual discrepancies, as well but it is so great for the Company to get this coverage. I am hoping this exposure will help on so many levels!
November 19, 2010 there were 21,216,115 shares I found.
I do hope no one was misled! Not the 52 week low again, today and after this great, great coverage and excellent interview!
Well, we will wait on your optimistic pronouncements!
I guess CHWM getting ready to take care of some IMPORTANT issues.
I am very excited to see CHWM's New Year Future!!! I agree this is such a great Company!
I am SURE you are correct regarding the unfortunate year end selling but sometime priorities, backfire. It so so important to have your priorities straight and try to do the right thing. People should NOT sell, because it hurts the share price and that is such a bad thing.
Listening to the two interviews, I am just not sure how different the substance of this December 2010, interview of Hager was from the March 2010, Interview of Berman. What has changed? If you could help us all out to understand that, it might help across the board! (No pun intended.)

CHWM Now Positioned to Deliver Wireless and Broadband Communications in China
Recently Elected Principal Officer Eric Hager Releases Inspiring New Letter to Investors
China Wi-Max Reaches Major Milestone through Start of Revenue Generation in Current Quarter via Provision of Broadband Services in Beijing
The Green Baron Views Believes CHWM Has Fundamentally Turned the Corner and Will Likely Stage a Big Rally as we head into New Year
Boy, we are still waiting on that one! But not to worry, a few trading days left!!!
Few can argue that China’s growth and sheer number of people represents a phenomenal opportunity to companies that have secured licenses in populous areas to provide broadband services. Today, The Green Baron Report has identified a Company that has these licenses and is now ready to jumpstart its revenues by “lighting up” buildings located in its network. We believe our timing is perfect now!
The Green Baron Report has selected China Wi-Max Communications, Inc. (OTCBB: CHWM) as our newest Green Baron “Stock Alert”, and we strongly suggest members [b[color=red]]accumulate the stock as close to our profile price as possible.[/color] Yes, that was $0.07 was it not?
Results compiled from the most recent trade prior to dissemination of this report to the subsequent high will be closely monitored at www.thegreenbaron.com and through email updates to members.
We have very aggressive price projections for China Wi-Max and believe the stock has huge upside potential based on several positive fundamental factors.
TRADER’S NOTES: CHWM is a fully registered and reporting company traded on both the OTC Bulletin Board. The stock is represented by several major market makers that typically keep the spread tight. Tight? 100%. We really need to tighten that spread up, right?
Although volume has been light to moderate of late, the stock has traded over 100,000 shares at least 10 times over the past year; a healthy number considering the relatively low number of shares outstanding and in the float.
CHWM has slowly declined all year so we believe it is under some pressure from shareholders who may be tax selling before year end. CHWM is just a few cents off the year-low.
Back at it lows today?
About China Wi-Max Communications, Inc.
China Wi-Max plans to build, own, and operate metropolitan area Internet Protocol (IP)-based broadband networks using a combination of Company-owned optical fiber and wireless spectrum. These networks are designed to provide the reliability, redundancy, scalability, and other features expected of a carrier class network. The Company intends to provide IP Transport, Internet Access, and value added services (VAS) in China. Furthermore, the Company plans to position itself as alternative transit facilities in and out of China, connecting enterprise customers directly to a global communications network providing managed Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) to U.S. companies.
Until recently, it was not possible for foreign investors to own a large portion of a Chinese company in the telecommunication industry. The opportunity for foreign companies to actively participate in the Chinese telecommunications market has only recently become a true reality. Foreign investors may now own up to 49% in basic telecommunication enterprises and up to 50% of value-added telecommunication enterprises.
CHWM has the necessary assets, subsidiaries, licenses, contracts and agreements to be a leading Chinese value added telecommunications provider in 2010 and beyond. This is a unique market position for the Company.
The Green Baron Report has identified the following reasons why we believe CHWM will start to perform strongly and should be actively accumulated:
· Revenues a Reality – In a press release announced October 27, 2010, China Wi-Max secured the beginning of revenue generation via the provision of broadband services to a commercial customer in Beijing. To further execute its agreement with CJ Network, CHWM plans to invest about $200,000 to interconnect and “light up” buildings located on its network.
· Huge Market Opportunity in Beijing - With its fiber network installed in Beijing, China Wi-Max is positioned to expand with the many large commercial buildings within reach of its 45-mile fiber ring around Beijing’s Fourth Ring Road. China Wi-Max is currently engaged in strategic negotiations with multi-tenant building owners and managers to provide broadband Internet access to those buildings and their tenants. It will use its government-licensed - wireless band at 5.8 GHz to extend broadband access eventually to most of Beijing.
· Eric Hager Accepts Role as Executive Vice President – An 8-K filing in early November notes that Mr. Hager accepted a more active role in the Company as its Executive Vice President. He is convinced that CHWN has the potential to be successful in the largest Internet market and beyond. His acceptance of this position indicates a major vote of confidence in the future of the Company.
· $10 Million Line of Credit – In August, 2010, a Reserve Equity Financing Agreement was announced with AGS Capital Group (AGS) in a commitment to purchase, over a period of two years, shares of China Wi-MAX common stock for cash consideration up to an aggregate of $10 million. The Reserve Equity Financing provided by AGS represents cost effective and flexible financing that places China Wi-MAX in control of how and when it raises equity and debt.
· Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Tianjin Markets - The Company has acquired fiber assets beyound Beijing in Hangzhou and option agreements to purchase fiber in Shanghai and Tianjin, six additional cities.
· Future Growth - China Wi-MAX plans to obtain additional wireless spectrum and fiber assets for the ten largest markets in China.
We believe CHWM stock is at an ideal accumulation point, and expect the shares to rally through the balance of the year and into January. This is an ideal situation where the stock is low and the fundamentals are turning. Tax loss selling has likely kept the stock from making a rally sooner. Revenues have now started and we expect to see massive growth over the coming quarters. It is hard to break into the market in China, but this management team has made it happen and is positioned to deliver.
Wi-MAX Technology Competitive Advantage
China Wi-MAX currently owns - fiber rings in Beijing and Hangzhou. These fiber networks run through business districts passing through large numbers of commercial customers per mile. Currently, fiber is out of reach for many businesses just a few blocks or miles away. Leveraging wireless technology for the last mile dramatically increases the number of potential customers and leverages the Company’s fiber network at a low cost, for a competitive advantage.
Access the China Telecom Market
Foreign investors may now own up to 49% in basic telecommunication enterprises and up to 50% of value-added telecommunication enterprises in China. China Wi-MAX has access and infrastructure in place to take advantage of this opportunity. China Wi-MAX has a significant presence in China.
China’s growth is not an accident. It is the result of both government policy and the fact that millions of Chinese individuals are entering the middle class and are using telecom services like Internet access and wireless phones.
China has already surpassed the U.S. as the largest market in the world for both Internet users and wireless phone subscribers. It is still growing quickly. During 2008, Internet users in China increased 41.9% to 298 million (Figure 3), with an Internet penetration rate of 22.6%, only slightly higher than the world average of 21.9% and ranking only 87th among all countries. Bottom Line: there is room for China’s growth to continue.
China’s Internet Growth:
The growth in wireless and Internet users in China has promoted the development of applications like business-to-business and business-to-consumer e-commerce, multimedia, voice over IP, hosted software applications and websites catering to Chinese users. The rapid development of these services not only increases the demand for bandwidth, but also drives demand for faster bandwidth, since China’s bandwidth speeds often still lag behind other countries. All of this feeds into an underserved market for more and more bandwidth and more capacity on the network.
China Wi-MAX Four City Plan
The Company plans to be operational in the 4th Quarter of 2010 and launch services in Beijing. Operational tests have been successfully demonstrated in 2010. CHWM is planning to launch operations in three additional cities, one by one, in the next 12-18 months. These three additional cities are Hangzhou, Shanghai and Tianjin. This “four-city” plan intends to cover up to 200,000 businesses by the end of 2015.
Beijing Market
China Wi-MAX is currently introducing service offerings to customers on its first fiber network in Beijing.
The Company has a team in place in its Beijing office to provide engineering, customer support and sales. Numerous marketing studies have been completed indicating that the market for high quality broadband connections in Beijing is under-served in capacity and quality of service. The Company’s network is designed to provide the reliability, redundancy, scalability and other features expected of a carrier class network.
Beijing Fourth Ring Road and China Wi-Max 45 Mile Fiber Ring
With its fiber network installed in Beijing, China Wi-MAX is positioned to expand with the many large commercial buildings within reach of its 45-mile fiber ring around Beijing’s Fourth Ring Road. China Wi-MAX is currently engaged in strategic negotiations with multi-tenant building owners and managers to provide broadband Internet access to those buildings and their tenants.
The 45-mile fiber ring, when combined with the licensed broadband wireless access, is especially valuable because further fiber development in the center of Beijing, which is inside China Wi-MAX’s fiber ring, is currently discouraged. China Wi-Max will use its government-licensed and - wireless band at 5.8 GHz to extend broadband access eventually to most of Beijing.
5.8GHz Wireless Access
CHWM intends to use 5.8 GHz wireless access to extend the reach of its fiber network (5 miles or more) by connecting buildings beyond the network to those on the fiber ring through roof-top wireless antennae. Using integrated optical fiber and wireless networks greatly increases the potential number of customers the Company can serve.
Hangzhou Market
In Hangzhou the intention is to develop and grow a significant, recurring revenue stream based on the success of the fiber and wireless model being established in Beijing.
Hangzhou Municipality is divided into eight districts (six urban, two suburban), three county-level cities, and two counties. The central six urban districts occupy 682 km² (263.4 mi²) and have a population of over 2 million. The two suburban districts occupy 2,642 km² (1020 mi²) and have over 2 million people. Hangzhou’s industries have traditionally involved textile, silk and machinery, but electronics and other light industries are developing, especially since the start of the new open economy in 1992.
China Wi-MAX currently owns fiber with access to wireless spectrum. Hangzhou has a population approaching 7 million people.
Shanghai Market Agreement to Purchase 150 Kilometers (90 miles) of Fiber
China Wi-MAX is also licensed by the government to use its wireless 5.8 GHz spectrum in Shanghai which is the largest city in China and one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, with over 20 million people.
An agreement has been reached, through its wholly-owned foreign entity subsidiary, Yuan Shan Shi Dai Technology Development Company (“Shi Dai”), to purchase 150 Kilometers (90 miles) of fiber throughout Shanghai.
In Shanghai, China Wi-MAX intends to purchase its four Core fiber ring. Initially, the network will be built as a redundant Ethernet Backbone. In the future with no changes to the fiber, WDM (Wave Division Multiplexing) and DWDM (Dense WDM) can push this to significantly higher limits.
This bandwidth can easily service well over 1,000 of Shanghai’s most desirable buildings. As in preceding China Wi-Max markets, the core network can be dramatically extended over Licensed 5.8GHZ wireless network. The ability to expand coverage using point-to-point links over fixed wireless broadband network , will further enhance customer penetration at remarkably low cost, which presents significant additional potential for more revenue and greater profits for the Company.
International Access to China Telecom Market
Since China’s admission to the World Trade Organization (WTO), the number of U.S.-based companies operating and making direct investments in China has boomed. This has resulted in a significantly enhanced need for data services between the United States and China. Large multi-national companies with a significant presence in the United States — and directly operating in China or outsourcing manufacturing there — have high bandwidth needs that are presently very difficult to provision, manage, and very expensive.
Most U.S. companies have preferred telecom vendors (ATT, Verizon, etc). However, these vendors, at this time, are not permitted to terminate directly on mainland China. All data lines entering China must terminate first on an official carrier such as China Telecom or China Netcom. This is even true for US joint venture partners for the new fiber route, the Trans Pacific Express. Even if U.S. telecom companies could overcome this initial obstacle they still are disadvantaged in getting from a point of entry to the local loop of the customer. The result is a multi-vendor segmented link that makes it difficult to coordinate customer installations, and often lacks enforceable “service level agreements” (SLAs).
CHWM sees this problem as a significant market opportunity. With established relationships and agreements, the Company intends to break through the barriers other U.S. based companies have in provisioning services end-to-end between the U.S. and China. This could greatly expand the Company’s service offerings from local access to extended end-to-end Virtual Private LAN Service (VPLS), with associated increases in revenue.
The market opportunity for U.S. to China VPLS (Virtual Private LAN Service) is another significant revenue opportunity. The ARPU (Average Revenue Per Unit) for services in the “four-city” model are in the range of $200 to $6,000 per month. The pricing for VPLS service from the U.S. to China competitively ranges from $13,500 (for a 10MB link) and $82,500 (for a 100MB link). Even a small number of customers of these high value services will be a significant revenue contributor CHWM’s operating plan.
The U.S. to China VPLS is based on the experience and unique relationships of the Company’s leadership. CHWM intends to extend the local loop advantage through the ingress and egress challenges of mainland transport facilities and regulations. Furthermore, China Wi-Max has entered into agreements that provide fiber access to 2.5 Gbp currently and can be expanded in the future to 10Gbps and 100Gbps via dual, as in a protected, fiber connection between Hong Kong and mainland China, closing one of the most difficult challenge in provisioning to China.
Strategic Acquisitions and Joint Ventures
CHWM’s operating plan assumes that the revenue growth will be through the direct sales and marketing efforts of our Chinese partner companies and US based marketing leadership. However, CHWM’s plan is expected to be significantly accomplished through acquisitions and joint ventures. Directing upward to 60% of capital toward acquisitions and joint ventures in this manner will significantly accelerate the Company’s model for reaching positive cash flow. In fact, the Company has entered into Letter of Intents (LOIs) and Memorandum of Understandings (MOUs) pending funding of CHWM capital plan.

Wednesday, October 27, 2010 - CHWM Expands Customer Base, Network, and Operations in Beijing via CJ Network Deal - DENVER, CO and GRAFTON, WI and BEIJING -- (MARKET WIRE) - China Wi-Max Communications, Inc. (OTCBB: CHWM), a leader in high speed broadband access in China, announced today a major milestone -- the beginning of revenue generation via the provision of broadband services to a commercial customer in Beijing. This news follows-up on CHWM's previous announcement of significantly enhancing its operations and potential customers in Beijing through a strategic agreement with Beijing's CJ Network, a Network Consultation and Service Company.
Under this Agreement, CJ Network will engineer and construct fibers from CHWM's 4th Ring Road fiber backbone for up to nine new business buildings. CJ Network will maintain fiber and in-building access to customers, and provide Tier-1 Quality Technical Support. Further, the agreement provides for CHWM to interconnect its 4th Ring Road fiber with CJ Network's 3rd Ring Road fiber network operations center, and will provide 700MB of Internet bandwidth.
This agreement also provides a framework for adding additional buildings, use of CHWM's wireless assets, a termination center for international VPN, as well as cooperative sales and revenue sharing.
Regarding this important milestone in the Company's operations in China, CHWM's Founder and Chairman, Dr. Allan Rabinoff, stated, "We are excited to take this next step in our ongoing operations in China -- and to gain access to a city-wide ISP license, which legally allows us to provide internet service to any and all customers in Beijing." CHWM's President and CEO Steven Berman added that "this contractual relationship with CJ Network is an important next step in growing our business presence in Beijing -- and putting us in the strategic position to enhance our service offerings to commercial customers needing high speed broadband internet services. It is also significant to report revenues from our operations in China."

Green Baron Conclusion
China Wi-Max Communications reached a significant milestone this quarter by initiating revenue production. Delivery of internet service is an industry that is viral. It takes a great amount of time, effort and money to secure the licenses necessary to get into a target market, but once deployed the growth can be staggering.
The Green Baron Report believes the greatest markets to enter in the world for telecommunications are those in the major cities of China. China Wi-Max has spent the past several years focused on these markets and has successfully entered them. Now, the Company is positioned to reap the rewards at this critical time.
The Company’s “four city” plan is now under way with the launch of services this quarter in Beijing. CHWM is planning to launch operations in Hangzhou, Shanghai and Tianjin over the next 12-18 months. This “four-city” plan intends to cover up to 200,000 businesses by the end of 2015, a number that would bring significant profits to the Company and we believe massive gains to shareholders who accumulate at this price.

Any word on when they might be getting caught up on things? Luk?
This optimism is so wonderful. Is it shared by the Company? Do they agree regarding this turn around? Are they optimistic enough to fund a few issues out there?
Can they put their money where YOUR mouth is!!! That is very exciting to contemplate.
Merry Christmas, Luk! The time of Christian Charity!!!
____________________________
I believe a major turn around is coming for CHWM going into the new year.
China Wi-Max (CHWM) is in the process of providing broadband internet access to the multi-tenant buildings within its 45-mile fiber ring around Beijing’s Fourth Ring Road.
I understand that China Wi-Max owns fiber and licenses in Beijing that can be valued at $25-$50 million and they will be capable of delivering internet to 10 million of the 17 million people in that area. Although the company has been slow to deploy it, they are now partnering up with others and are starting to generate revenues this quarter. The stock is valued at a fraction of this valuation assessment.
I hear money is coming to market and expand clientele. This could be huge and has massive upside. Stock is near year low and expected to bounce after tax selling stops. I expect the stock to begin it's climb just after the beginning of the new year and continue higher as major news is released.
This is a serious business we undertake, one step at a time. Very serious.
I find the postings of Luk3, very interesting. Luk, are you an insider, because I do not find all your information in 8-K's or on the Company website. Could you provide the source.
I would very much like more information. I think the company would be well served by better communcations.
I really like the site:
http://www.corporateprofile.com/
If you could direct me to the source of the information from which you are "hearing" your information I would be most appreciative. Additionally, I find your valuation, fascinating. Could you advise me of how you arrived at the $25M to $50M figure. If that is the case, this is the buy of the century! Fill me in, please!
I quote your recent postings as follow:
