*Ericy into cybermoney and demo of VW40*
Message 8282015

VW40 as demonstrated didn't seem like a technology which would have a street price any time soon, even leaving aside the IP issues. If Q! needs Ericy technology to hook onto GSM networks and overlay with cdmaOne, cdma2000, HDR or WWeb then it is stalemate. Except that cdmaOne can just be built out as greenfield using cute little QCell Babes, leaving legacy GSM to rot under their Darth Vader towers. So Q! still has a way forward and it will become checkmate for Ericy who must be stalling because they know they don't have a show of getting VW40 working anytime soon.

If they can defer 3G until some time next century, that is probably good for them - except that it isn't because they are missing out on billions of $$$$ as cdmaOne continues to rampage. Talk about horns of a dilemma. Lars must be thinking he made some wrong choices.

Let's hope Q! isn't slow off the mark in converting their Eudora to a money transaction system using their encryption expertise. Ericy has figured out that moving money is going to be very big time in cyberspace. Probably the biggest time of all because we all do it, it has commodity value, computers love it and the volumes are stupendous. Email is trivial by comparison.

If Q! can make CineComm happen, I bet they can beam money up.
