Good point...."show me the beef".

Yes, the niche is likely to be lucrative....but players like Entrust are out there, too, with a lead in the marketplace.....and large banks who swear by their capabilities.

Paul Allen is an investor in Certicom....but, that's not Diversinet, and his share is relatively small. Has anyone seen this stuff actually work, or is it all "white paper" material. I'm sure most of us have seen white papers that turned yellow on the shelf.

Have the execs at Diversinet (versus the outside board members) ever actually delivered a commercially viable product? I believe the answer may be found through a little judicious research. How about WARP10? Some of the same players.....not very impressive results. Instant Publisher? Gaming Lottery?

There's enough material on the net for anyone to publish a white paper. Building, testing and delivering a viable product is a different proposition.

Bre-X had a great concept.

Good luck.
