Lies!: SeaView CEO Bernardich Recaps First 100 Days
(FG 666 You fricken pussy, exlcuding moi on your "will the SEVU crap ever rise again? thread." Business Editors/High Technology Writers ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 31, 2001--George S. Bernardich III, CEO of SeaView Video Technology, Inc. (OTCBB:SEVU) (www.sevu.com) today released the following statement: "It has now been 100 days since Mike Ambler and Doug Bauer joined me on the SeaView team, in late February. One hundred days ago, I said our direction would be simple, focusing first on sales. The list of retail partners for our SeaView and SecureView products has grown, and will continue to grow, as our team of sales representatives work to finalize all of the details necessary to conduct business with these major partners. There are hundreds of details regarding merchandise assortment, space planning, open-to-buy, custom packaging, delivery logistics, EDI communications, advertising and more. These retail partners will provide the sales growth basis for SeaView both now and in the future. "One of our retail partners, SkyMall, Inc., is ready for the launch of our products in the summer edition of their catalog -- selling to approximately 1.3 million passengers per day. We have been told we can expect to begin fulfilling orders as early as June 15, 2001. In addition, we will be featured on their internet site (www.skymall.com) on a rotating basis in the 3rd quarter. "Interest continues to grow for our SecureView Parking Lot Surveillance Package. In addition to the major retailer for whom we have completed site surveys and a proposal, all of the 'Top 5' retailers have requested the presentation and samples for review. The entire system is economical and user-friendly, while including state-of-the-art SecureView patented IRFS technology, software, and 24 hour digital computer recording. And, our newest advancement is the ability to expand the system up to 32 cameras. "Continuing on the sales front, next week begins our direct-mail launch of SecureView to the 446,000 Bar and Restaurant establishments in the State of Florida. On average direct mail produces a response rate between .5% and 1%. The success of this initial mailing will determine our expansion into this market across the United States. "Based on these sales initiatives, we obviously accomplished another goal set forth 100 days ago -- the finalization of SecureView production and the initial shipping of backorders. Production and shipping of the initial 20,000 SecureView systems is currently on schedule. "I would also like to introduce the newest product addition to the SeaView Marine Division line. SeaMaster 600 utilizes new camera technology developed for SeaView, giving us the first underwater camera with single-chip integration of both color and infrared-enhanced black-and-white imaging. SeaMaster 600 switches seamlessly between the two formats, automatically, in response to lighting conditions. Another benefit is user-controlled digital zoom using the latest in DSP technology. SeaMaster 600 will be offered in our 'offshore series' form factor and will eventually replace our TwinCam at the top of the Marine line. "In closing, I would like to acknowledge the efforts of the entire SeaView Team over the past 100 days, and express my appreciation for all the hard work they have done to make it happen."
