I would urger everybody...

...to stop complaining and putting the monkey on managements shoulders.

After all, we're still up 4-fold since last Wednesday. That is an astronomical gain. Everybody has the chance to sell at this point and take a very nice profit. If you don't, stop complaining about what management has supposedly been doing wrong.

Understand the technology and the space!

N4...re IBM fiasco...Let me start off by saying that we are paying way to much attention to the tree and overlooking the forest. The real significance of the IBM news is being overlooked by a large number of people. Think about the following:
1) IBM has a secure pc that they have had in the market for nearly two years.
2) During this time...IBM has NOT been able to provide enough applications to satisfy their clients.
3) One of the reasons why IBM came back to Wave was to have a product to offer their clients who had initially bought their "secure" pcs.
4) IBM certification is the FIRST step that will allow their PAST clients as well as their FUTURE clients to get the most out of their "secure" pcs.
5) IBM certification is the FIRST step that will allow us to get our products into the PC/notebooks that have ALREADY been deployed by IBM.
6) EVERY time the application is downloaded and activated...WAVE WILL GENERATE REVENUE

A few things to keep in mind....the world for the wavoid CHANGED the day that INTEL proclaimed....WAVE INSIDE!!!!

Sincerely,

Jas

N4: May I disagree? You state: "Unfortunately, Wave and Wavoids are paying the price for the FIASCO'S ramifications."

Who ever's fault the ill-fated story was, did we not benefit (in terms of share price) from the misconception we had "inked" a deal with IBM? IMO, this gain was based on a mistake, and it was right that we give it back, as much as it pains.

The longer range problem, as I see it and as SPIN said last night, it hurts Wave's credibility.

Let's both hope this stock has many more real deals coming down the pike and that this little dustup will soon be forgotten.

We have been downtrodden for way too long and we (collectively) are a little too sensitive (IMO) to what is perceived to be slights. Honest, but sloppy mistakes are seen as part of a conspiracy. It's just another little bump in a very long road.

Best wishes--Bluefang
