Thanks, I also thought SKS mentioned being re-elected to one of the 3 positions on the Board of Directors. Perhaps it's not money in the bank, but it assures Wave of staying politically connected within the TCG, and also enables it to help direct future solutions towards Waves' vision and IP!
It does seem as though upgrades aren't happening as quickly as we'd like, but just because Papa Ginos is the only enterprise mentioned, doesn't indicate they're the only adopters. I'm sure the large NY bank referenced in an earlier CC would not like their security revealed to the world, as would most others! I know there are plenty of others, but it seems as though perhaps Papa Ginos made an agreement to recieve discounts in return for being the poster child for TC with Dell/Wave. One reason may be that if an enterprise such as a retail restaurant can find a significant ROI and increased security and functionality with TPMs, than a security conscious enterprise should be a slam-dunk! JMHO
The DOD or a few high visibility enterprises would certainly help. NTT Data should be making better progress now that they have had more time to test and demonstrate TPMs w/Waves ETS to their many clients. Japan's Govt has made it clear that they are in the TC camp and are recommending TCG solutions. We also have ICT pushing Wave/TPMs in Germany and Austria. Even if progress is slow, with many different resellers, Wave will continue to increase revenues, and TC will eventually touch everyone!
Along with Dell, Gateway, Intel and others, the industry is getting educated. If TCG at RSA went from 150 attendees last year to 500+ attendees this year, what size arena will be needed next year?
