Thanks Mark and Buffet! It has seriously become like trying to explain "Risk vs. Reward" to a two-year old. Such simple concepts that my 5 year-old could understand. If I put a candy bar on the table and said to my daughter that if you eat your spinach you can have this. She'll choose to eat it because she can see and feel the reward. But what if I tell her that there might be a candy bar in the drawer for her if she eats the spinach. Then, she needs to make a decision of whether it's worth eating the spinach to see what's in the drawer. Does she take that risk? Maybe there are few things that can help her decide like the fact that I went to the store that day or something.

So I am going to seriously say this for the last time:

ONCE THE REVENUES ARE KNOWN IT WILL BE TOO LATE TO GET IN OR GET OUT! THE PRICE WILL EITHER BE $20 OR WE'll BE BANKRUPT. THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS BOARD OR COMMUNITY, TO TRY TO EVALUATE THE PROGRESS OF THE COMPANY WHEN REVENUES AREN'T THERE YET. TO TRY AND SAY THAT "until we have actual figures to hang our hats on, we all must grope around in the dark" is ridiculous. I wouldn't call being responsible for an entire paradigm shift and then watching the pieces fall into place exactly groping in the dark. This investment is unprecedented in that you actually have the opportunity to see a shift in the making and be able to afford the share price in order to participate in it. IF THE SHIFT ISN'T OCCURRING AND THE TCG IS MAKING NO PROGRESS...THEN GET OUT NOW!!! IF YOU BELIEVE THAT THERE IS INDEED PROGRESS BEING MADE AND THAT THESE MAJOR GORILLAS AND WAVE AREN'T JUST GROPING AROUND IN THE DARK..THEN STAY IN FOR THE RIDE. BUT PLEASE DON'T COME INTO THIS BOARD AND INSULT EVERYONE"S INTELLIGENCE BY SAYING THAT IT LOOKS LIKE THINGS ARE GRIM BECAUSE OF THE SHARE PRICE AND REVENUE.

If 50 Million TPM's get deployed this year by Dell, HP, and Intel and Wave doesn't make a dime, then obviously their revenue model didn't work and the price will be very low in exiting. If they deploy and Wave books let's say 10 million in revenue with quarter over quarter growth, then it may appear we have a successful company, but the price will then be $5 or $10 and way higher than it is now.

So you have to make a decision based on the unknowns in order to reap the biggest benefits. It's called "Risk vs. Reward" and it is the most basic concept. Please do not insult us any longer people. It is very obvious that revenues are what we are seeking, but the industry has yet to deploy, so how can you use this as an indicator right now on how Wave and management is doing? It's absurd!

And about the SEC investigation. Again, it is simple. You either believe they did something wrong or you don't and you measure that risk when investing. Let's get back to following the industry and stop this nonsense.

Thanks,
Steve
