You're probably correct. And the CE market should be big enough, in the short run, anyway, for SCKT to get good sales. Microsoft is very persistent in markets it enters, even though it often takes years to get things right, or right enough.

> I find the market cap of Socket to be very low.

I donno. It's still a tiny company (24 employees, isn't it?). They must do design only and contract out everything else.

Still if SCKT gets balanced enough to get relisted, the price should take a leap in the right direction....

This I don't understand. SCKT creates hardware, not software, and by conforming to standards I would think their cards could run in lots of devices. Don't ordinary laptop modems also work in CE devices? So why not the other way around for SCKT devices?
