Re: "over the next 4 quarters we will have SUBSTANTIAL GROWTH....."

Furthermore, the statement is in reference to the growth in the tpm market. Wavx should be riding that wave, but they don't have 100% market penetration either, so their piece of the pie is smaller. In edit: I see I'm repeating points already made.

Good luck Jeff.

Bonnie, With all respect and regard for your personal predicament and sentiments, I feek it is appropriate for the board to hear a similar, but less pessimistic perspective, reflective of personal circumstances... my own. To summarize the salient facts:

I began buying WAVX right after the re-listing. This was in 1998, I believe. My posting history will confirm this.

At the time, I was employed with a federal agency in Washington, and anticipated that WAVX would provide the substantial portion of my financial comfort and security in retirement.

At the time, I was in basically good fealth, although I had some years earlier received an organ transplant.

In January 2002, I suffered a medical setback, resulting in an ampution of my BK right lower limb., which resulted in unanticipated disability retirement. With my increasing medical expenditures, my financial situation understandably worsened.

In June of this year, additional medical problems arose, specifically, acute rejection of my transplanted organs. Again, this has triggered large, unanticipated medical bills, and other new financial commitments.

Through this, I have had no reason to back away from my initial commitment to Wave. In fact, I have continued to accumulate, based on my reading of the progression of developments. I base my continued optimism on a profound belief in the inevitability of Wave's technology, and Wave's ultimate success in commercially benefiting from it. You use the phrase 'blind faith'. I do not base my actions on blind faith. My friends say that I am a hard-headed lawyer with a heart of stone. I have never operated in any situation on 'blind faith'. I concede that all could be lost here, but on the basis of all the UNEMOTIONAL, rationally analysed and argued evidence to date, I don't think so.

In summary, my advice is the following: If you don't have an immediate need for the money you would gain by liquidating your position, than hold tight, get emotionally UNattached, and start by taking a vacation from posting on the board(s). There are a lot of congenital whiners and persons with derogatory agendas here, and listening to them can unduely infect the clarity of your thinking, if you get too engaged in their thought 'processes'.

Best of luck, whatever you do.

bonnie--You write: Bluefang...I cant thank you enough for what you said...its true..."

Let me suggest that Bluefang does NOT speak the truth about anything. Almost every post of his veritably drips with specious and bloated nonsense.

The Trusted Computing paradigm shift is NO LONGER speculation it is FACT! And almost everyone in the computing industry clearly understands this, and will adapt, or perish!

The TRUSTED COMPUTING LAUNCH IS IMMINENT!!!

And only the Blind, Deaf and Dumb, could possibly miss the obvious, staring them in the face, EVIDENCE, of WAVE's designated critical role in that LAUNCH!

Let me repeat! The TRUSTED COMPUTING LAUNCH IS IMMINENT!!!
AND THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR, COMPELLING, INDEED, OVERWHELMING THAT TRUSTED COMPUTING LAUNCH CANNOT HAPPEN, AND WILL NOT HAPPEN, WITHOUT WAVE'S TECHNOLOGY!

I suggest that you rethink very carefully your decision to walk away from this investment.

Bonnie.. I can sympathize with you

I am older than you and waiting 5 years for you and me is much different than for the 30 or 40 somethings. So, I am impatient with this investment. I was disappointed with the cc because it did not meet my hopes/expectations. However, I am not sure that those expectations were reasonable.

My personal opinion is that the stock price will suffer more because people like us who had unreasonable expectations will sell feeling disappointed because the call did not meet our expections.

You must do what will provide you with a comfort level. WAVX may yet be your saviour.. just not this quarter. I hope for your sake that whatever you do is based on sound reasoning and not an emotional reaction. We all know WAVX will be down at the open.. just be careful when you pull the trigger, if you do. Don't sell in a panic. Good luck and best wishes, my friend.
