no stock movement (volume) nor any insider buying.

Tenderloin:

"When Wencor acquired APS, e.Digital was quick to put out a statement talking about continued cooperation. "

Indeed they did. However, I don't think one will be forthcoming this time. We'll see.

What could e.Digital offer the merged APS/IMS entity?

They certainly don't need IFE engineering or design services (IMS is much more capable and experienced) nor do they need manufacturing oversight.

It seems likely that they would place future orders for the current generation of digEplayers through e.Digital, but I see no other role beyond that. If you or others have some ideas, I'd be interested in hearing them.

People might want to re-read the information about the PEA. It is definitely a more advanced product with far better logistics, content options, etc. It also uses COTS parts for cost-effectiveness. Last year's PR:

well that begs the question...

"Pellegrini/IMS got no where with the PEA Air Sahara? LOL They were toast on this product and they knew it."

why would WENCOR, which has been previously held up as a great organization with vision suddenly become stupid enough to pay good money for products that "got no where" and where "toast". Doesn't make any business sense.

Why not just let them wither on the vine and die? The only scenario to buy an inferior product that makes sense is if they had a bunch of locked-up contracts, which you have pointed out they don't.

Buy a whole company to get their people? Especially someone that "struck out" previously? WENCOR just spent how long hiring folks for this area? Nope, WENCOR saw something there that they did not have and buying the company lock, stock, and barrel was a cheaper/better solution then developing with EDIG.

Imo dont be surprised if edig remains ambiguous about this deal, using the excuse of needing permission from wencor to talk about it, until shareholders vote on the increase in authorized shares. Once they know they can produce their most successful product for another couple of years they can then be honest. Also, do any other co,s thank shareholders for their support?

Tenderloin, Edig will probably say that Wencor is going in a different direction and can't use our game plan. Just a thought!
