HP confirmed last week that they ARE working with EISQ but have no finalized contracts. As far as I'm concerned, that's very good confirmation of EISQ's status with HWP:
(COMTEX) B: HP Clarifies Position Regarding Recent Press Release Issu B: HP Clarifies Position Regarding Recent Press Release Issued by Electronic Identification, Inc. PALO ALTO, Calif., Feb 10, 2000 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Hewlett-Packard Company today issued a clarification regarding certain statements made by Electronic Identification, Inc. (EI2), a developer of smart-card technology, in a press release EI2 issued on Jan. 27, 2000. HP said that although HP and EI2 entered into a teaming agreement in May 1999, the relationship to date has not resulted in any sales of smart-card-technology products or services jointly offered by HP and EI2. Furthermore, while HP and EI2 have discussed other potential business opportunities, the two companies have not entered into any formal agreement to pursue those opportunities.
Secondly, the Bluestone agreement is a big deal. Looks at Blustone's performance since the IPO.
Finally, I've heard rumor that Saudi deal con't be completed until HP's role is part of the contract. EISQ started the deal and has the technology.
IS HP buying shares? IS Bluestone buying shares?
Someone is VERY serious about accumulation, IMHO. Just look at the charts.
I've got shares since more that a year ago. I'm waiting for $67 because that's what this stock is all about. And at $67 or $100, I'd still only sell HALF!!
No guarantees but more likely all the time! later, leroyt |
