People, please

>>In case you don't know Microsoft's purchase of Skype for 8.5 billion dollar. We might have better tech than Skype so If we value only one billion that will put us 40 dollar per share.<<

The technology PVSP is using to compete against Skype and others is Worldgate Communication (WGAT). It is not PVPS's technology. WGAT provides the video phone to PVSP to run on its network. The patented video phone technology is WGAT and they can sell to any network carrier they want to. Here is how good the Ojo Vision video phone is:

PVSP has the Video Phone - Ojo Vision hardware, by WorldGate, AND PVSP has it's own, OUTSTANDING, proprietary, network services software which is being/will be focused on Mobile VoIP, which is where the REVOLUTION will occur in the FASTEST GROWING INDUSTRY IN THE US (see article, end of post). In addition, PVSP DOES provide the ability to call 911, which is not to be confused with the MM secret code, lol...(see Skype 911 in bold below). And, on another note, the CEO, CFO and possibly (I'll have to check again) the CTO/CIO of WorldGate have all recently resigned as it appears, to me, that WGAT is heading headlong into bankruptcy. Maybe NetCapital can come in and scoop up all the pieces, Ojo Vision (videophone), at a bargain rate? WOULDN'T THAT BE THE CAT'S MEOW? lol...Meanwhile, Napster Founder John Fanning "promises" to bring additional technologies to PVSP. Valuation back up to $1,000,000,000 :)

mulaa, please, I don't believe Skype manufactures "their" video phones either. They may have made a mobile phone, at one point, not sure if that worked out for them. It's better, in my opinion, to do what one does best, software in PVSP's case, and let the hardware people do what they do best, the phones. Skype has had plenty of problems and may have a whole lot more now that the bloated Microsoft/Microhard Corp has it's hands all over it.

Skype (pronounced /'ska?p/) is a software application that allows users to make voice and video calls and chats over the Internet. Calls to other users within the Skype service are free, while calls to both traditional landline telephones and mobile phones can be made for a fee using a debit-based user account system. Skype has also become popular for its additional features which include instant messaging, file transfer, and video conferencing. Skype has 663 million registered users as of 2010.[1] The network is operated by Microsoft Skype Division, which has its headquarters in Luxembourg. Most of the development team and 44% of the overall employees of Skype are situated in the offices of Tallinn and Tartu, Estonia.[2][3]

Unlike other VoIP services, Skype is a peer-to-peer system rather than a client–server system, and makes use of background processing on computers running Skype software; the original name proposed – Sky peer-to-peer – reflects this.

Some network administrators have banned Skype on corporate,[4] government, home, and education networks,[5] citing reasons such as inappropriate usage of resources, excessive bandwidth usage,[6] and security concerns.[7]

On 10 May 2011 Microsoft Corporation agreed to acquire Skype Communications, S.à r.l for US$8.5 billion.[8] The company is to be incorporated as a division of Microsoft, and Microsoft will acquire all of the company's technologies, including Skype, with the purchase.[8]

This marked a 300% increase in value for the company in the three years since the eBay write-down in October 2007.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skype

Skype does not provide the ability to call emergency numbers such as 911 in the United States and Canada, 999 in the United Kingdom and many other countries, 111 in New Zealand, 000 in Australia, or 112 in Europe.[15] The U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has ruled that, for the purposes of section 255 of the Telecommunications Act, Skype is not an "interconnected VoIP provider".[16] As a result, the U.S. National Emergency Number Association recommends that all VoIP users have an analog line available as a backup.[17]
