Hey there... was out of posts, had to wait until past midnight. :-)
I agree... it's time for them to start putting up, or shutting up. They really need to get this problem under control. I wouldn't mind too much if it was the rare event, but now it seems to be more of the norm, rather than the exception, and I can see why it wears on one.
I have been very patient, and I still feel I'm being patient. I maintain a very positive long term outlook for the company, but if they state that something is going to happen on X date, then either make it happen or explain why it didn't... it's that simple.
I honestly feel that it's time for shareholders to begin contacting the company and questioning the lack of follow-through with the PRs. We aren't asking for them to follow up on rumor, or speculation, just for them to stick to what they've publicly stated, or issue a simple PR (or post on the website, which is public) indicating that there was a slight delay, etc... that would be so very much acceptable to me. In fact, I'd be very happy if they did 80% of their communication via their website, and leave the important / significant information for the PRs.
There really is no way that I'm going to sell off any shares because of this issue, but it should be corrected for by management. I'm prepared to give them a bit more time, perhaps a couple of weeks, as events may now be unfolding. After that I think it'll be massive letter-writing and phone-in time, because shareholders ARE owners, and we have a right to know what is going on with OUR company.
I really hope it doesn't come to that, because the efforts of a few to generate the call and letter volume should not be under-estimated in any way shape or form. If management is listening, please take heed.
Cheers
