Well, I predicted 350 million in revs and .15. I think it was do-able, but basically I was off. Too optimistic.
Long term outlook: 1. Great company, great leadership 2. We still need a floppy replacement. Maybe it will happen at the pace the 3.5 floppy came in (5 years if I recall) 3. Jaz is getting cheaper, power user demand is there. Jaz 2 coming HMTT conf call)?
Med term: 1. KE said Q3 has 2 months in it that are normally slow, challenging. 2. More production and OEM announcements 3. Quite a few OEM deals kick in Q3, this will help zip sales 4. Q4 is Christmas season, traditionally good for sales. 5. Q1 Notebook zip will be introduced.
My position: I reduced my iomg holdings in order to be able to relax more, worry less. I think I will diversify, any suggestions?
