Yes, a bit disappointing. But given that it happened this way I prefer to try to understand why. The most obvious idea to me is that ACRO is still so small that it is below almost everyone's radar and the announcement was a non event. Almost no one is looking at the company to be able to comprehend the significance of the announcement. I still think that it will take 4-5 HPT sales to get some people to take notice. It will probably take 4-5 sales to get a number of broadcasters to take notice that aren't taking ACRO seriously at this point (put another way, customer loyalty keeps them with Harris and Comark and it will take a number of sales to make them say....hmmmm, maybe little ACRO can save us money and if x y and z went with them maybe they will survive and maybe they have a better product). It also seems that the people who are aware of ACRO had already bought because they knew this was coming soon. There is actually a positive side to the stock not going up right now -- there has been some concern about ACRO being bought out prematurely. The less attention paid to ACRO the better for right now. Then hopefully a number of sales will occur in a short span of time and the stock will really go up and make it less attractive as a takeover.
