I would not call it a HYPE, probably speculative. They do have an FAA approved product being tested in U.S. and being used elsewhere in the world. The CTX5000 may be too slow. However, if implemented wisely it will prove to be effective. For example, use it in conjunction with profiling at the baggage check-in; not every bags have to be scanned. Is 30-60 seconds per baggage too slow compared to the added security/safety blanket that passengers will receive?

I agree that it looks overvalued, but it's potential is enormous - speculative. Although INVN has not shown a profit, their sales/revenue has been increasing. I read the Washington Post article from an earlier post on this thread, and the CTX5000 was mentioned (6) times in the article compared to none for the other devices. Of course, profiling was also detailed. Hopefully, GORE's commission recommendations (due out 9/9 ?) will prove to be a profitable one for INVN and others in this market.

Own shares w/BARR, bought INVN today at 25.5. Good luck to all.
