John why don't you forward this to the company? These are excellent questions that could clear up a great deal of doubt as to cash flow.

I sent of a note yesterday i haven't received a response too. My concern was of a different nature the software people and creativity. I can't explain but i see this technology being adapted to many uses.

That being said, one concern not being voiced here is how the joint venture status will affect cash flow. An open question (actually several): To whom are most of the recent licensees going to be paying their royalties? Is it to the JV in China? Where does Zi expect to record its revenue gains? Is it in the JV? If most of this revenue growth is going to occur in the JV, how is this going to affect Zi's cash flow? Will they be allowed to transfer their share of the profits back out of China to the parent corporation? If they are constrained in their repatriation of profits, then where is Zi going to get the money it needs to run the parent company? They are still leaking cash at the parent level.
