<<1) What will it take for this stock to get noticed? 2) What is with the trading on this thing? Interday trading is all over the map..opens lower/drops in the morning (up to a point)and then closes where it started, but it does this consistently. I almost like it's being played. >> I think consistent +ve announcements and earning growth will get it noticed again. GMSTF has a firm commitment from all the major manufacturers(VCR and TV) for their '98 product cycle. I think this will really sink in when people start seeing the "TV+ inside" like they see "VCR+ inside". In addition to all this, GMSTF has a great potential in the TV advert. market(imagine the impact of a coke ad. on the TV+ screen that's viewed by all the users, regardless of what channel they are on). I am no technical analyst, but I can believe that the market makers manipulate this security. I think its because of the low volume of this stock. This should go away once they have a bigger following. VCR+ growth is great and all but what investors need to see is a real +ve surprise. Possiblities are: 1>General instruments lawsuit results(expected soon and for $20*10^6). 2>Announcements from microsoft regarding the gmstf/sght patents and broader licensing. 3>RCA licensing money from TV+. -Paul
