Hi Mark!
Yes, I got your e-mail. And please forgive me for not answering it yet. I am really behind in that regards. I try to answer at least 1 or 2 a day, but until tax season is over with, I am just swamped, especially since I'm also doing two other things too. Three if you count the stock market.
What do I think about DGIV? Well, the more reading I do on this thread, the more I like this stock. When tax season is over, I'll have some time to do some outside reading of my own on this subject, but until then I just have to thank Byron and others for providing me with information.
I do have some thoughts though. Think back to the early 1900's when the phone lines were just being laid. Pretend that you were involved in the stock market then, and this little company called AT & T was brought to your attention. So you liked it and you bought it at about $1. And people were talking about it going to $5. Now the short term thinker would think WOW! WHAT A PROFIT!!! And he would get out at $5.
The long-term thinker would think, "Hey, this phone stuff is going to be BIG in the future. More and more phone lines will be laid. More improvements will come. More people are going to be getting telephones." The long-term thinker wouldn't even concern himself with the day to day movement of the stock, but would focus instead on the picture of the FUTURE. So the long-term thinker, while maybe possessing some trading shares in order to make things fun, would also have some investment shares....and so would never get totally out of AT & T.
Now then....10 years later....who do you think would be the happiest? That short-term person who got out at $5 with a big profit....or the long-term thinker who kept some cards on the table? That's how I am looking right now at DGIV.
Internet telephony and all the attendant benefits is here to stay. The question is what form will it stay in? Will companies like DGIV be bought out by some of the bigger TELCO's or will they create a niche of their own?
Right now DGIV has been busy laying the groundwork in places all over the world....the Far East....Russia....Europe....North America. Right now Internet Telephony is in it's infancy. But ask yourself where you think it'll be in 10 years? And who will be the major players? Will the major players be those who got in first? Or will they be those who come along later?
Lots of questions to ask yourself and lots of countries still to look at. For example, Mexico and South America.
