awk - don't forget that there are many on this board who bought in above $20. These are not nice gains for them. These loyal investors are waiting for Wave to make a comeback, and are expecting after a wait of this long for everything to go as smoothly as possible. They don't have endless dry powder like some of you appear to imply, and they don't need bad press like this. And it can be prevented with a bit of care.

Most of what you're hearing aired on this board is frustration, because it has hampered (even if only temporarily) an otherwise good start to Wave's coming out party. While it's probably naive to assume that nothing will ever go wrong, it's just sad to see something happen within a couple of days following the first real share-affecting event we've had over the last several years.

So please top over-protecting those who will obviously survive, including yourself if this is a big gain for you, and try and show a little patience and understanding for those who are trying to get back some of their losses. As you have always been a very interesting and important poster on this board, I offer these comments with the highest level of respect for you.

Regards,

AWK: I concur. Many of us Wavoids anticipate that eventually the buying frenzy will end and the share price will drop. The question was 'where is the ceiling', and now the question is 'where's the floor'. Those who short the stock will work hard to push the floor down. Those who bought on the news and who never heard about Wave pre-Intel may sell, but those investors or potential investors who are taking sometime to figure out what this little ol' company from Lee, Mass. is all about are likely to hold their positions on and/or buy. And I bet some of our institutional investors that shaved their positions are accumulating on the news. Wave is now on the investment screen for many, and the Intel and IBM announcement is a compelling reason to buy Wave.

Got a chance to edit. One more point. When I think of the share price, I think in terms of the end-game; where will the share price be in 2-5 years when Wave's potential either materializes or not. The last few days have been fun, and I have hi-fived a lot of my investor friends. Many of us bought at $20, and we bought at $10, at $6, and loaded up at .84 because we beleive that Wave is in the right place (space) at the right time and that the market backdrop is ripe for innovators like Wave to flourish.
