Re: Next Generation product...

From my Yahoo post ( messages.yahoo.com )-

Two clauses from the TRW announcement struck me as important w/ respect to SMTR. The first-

"....Initially, the agreement calls for TRW's TireWatch(TM) radio-frequency-based transmitter sensor -- which transmits tire pressure and temperature data to an in-vehicle receiver -- to be integrated with Michelin's Pax System and Logic software....."

This system, TRW's TireWatch(TM) radio-frequency-based transmitter sensor system I believe is the SMTR system developed with TRW. Therefore there is the potential for an earnings stream based on the royalty payments schedule between SMTR and TRW. (TRW/SMTR system is at trw.com^5^343^343,00. html )

Then there is this clause-

"....Subsequently, the two companies will work together to develop a next-generation transmitter for application on the Pax System as well as on conventional tires. Down the road, efforts will include optimizing the whole tire pressure monitoring arena...."

This second generation system could be the one under development with Transense technology which wouldn't require a power source in each wheel as is required now.

Later...Klingerg
