EKN,
It is truly amazing. CM can feel free to hype away his long position in a stock hoping to lure others into buying more stock, thereby enhancing his wealth. But! When a poor ole TexasDude comes along-- tells him that his dog might have fleas, he gets his feeling hurt and wants to sulk. He even wants me to take my flea spray away because he has got one of them pure-bred puppies.

I merely offer time and again what other companies ARE DOING and all I get back is "YEAH" BUT WAVX is going to do it better. I think they wrote that story years ago and it dealt with ..."the sky is falling! the sky is falling!"

How many times have we read about the alliance with HP and the boom for WAVX. Well! Lets take a look at the latest from HP as reported in the current Business Week magazine.(Let me admit right up front...they just did a cursory review of HP).
Under the Strategy Banner: Grade B+ E-service is a compelling approach that has struck a chord with many Net players. And Carly Fiorina's expertise in communications is the perfect complement. There's just one snag: HP is three years behind rivals IBM and Sun in the E-business market.
Under Innovation Banner: Grade C+ The new models are the kind of risk-taking HP needs. But they are no replacement for product breakthrough.
And finally under the Banner of Marketing: Grade C- The E-services marketing campaign is an improvement, but HP needs to boost spending and name a chief marketing officer. And the branding campaign WON'T ROLL OUT UNTIL NEXT YEAR. That's too long if HP wants to spiff up its stodgy image.

Bottomline is that CM, Wooly and others like to tell you what WAVX is GOING to DO. Completely ignoring what the competition is ALREADY DOING. But HEY! WAVX has a ten year history of telling you that they do it better. Go figure!
