from the bull market report: INTERNET APPLIANCE MARKET TO GROW TO $18 BILLION BY 2004
<<Bolstered by the almost daily announcement of new products, technologies,
and vendors, the marketplace for information appliances is rapidly taking
off, according to new research from International Data Group (IDC). As an
ever-broader group of vendors attempt to address the Post PC Era, the
worldwide market for information appliances will exceed 89 million units,
or $18 billion, in 2004, up from a market of 11 million units and $2.4
billion in 1999.
COMMENT: This is a market that we cannot afford to miss. We know it is
going to be big, but who is going to be the leader? We don't know yet,
but we do know that if Internet appliances take off, it is likely that
home networking will soon follow, and that is why we are investing in
Echelon (ELON, $47, up 4).>>
I'm an owner of ELON..
