Why WAVO still sucks

<< Wouldn't it be great to be sitting in your lazyboy watching CNBC (or the Playboy channel) on TV and split screen it with your internet connection so you can buy a stock from your online broker as soon as Faber tells you what a great company it is !! >>

Yeah, it would be great, but none of this involves what WAVO does.

<<Wavephore had a long-term partnership with Microsoft on developing Set-top boxes. >>

Really? This is new news. Why don't you post the release. I think MSFT agreed to distribute WaveFlop. They didn't do any joint development on set-top boxes. Dream on.

<<Wavephore is currently developing a television-oriented version of WaveTop service for integration with digital television set-top boxes>>

They are calling it WaveFlop II. Expect similar success.

<Wavephore had recently announced agreement with General Instrument Corporation (GIC) to bundle the WavePhore Digital Broadcast Suite with GIC's encoding equipment>>

Yeah, what happens is GI gives standards for their equipment and vendors design their products to work with it. Maybe GI did some testing. They do this for many companies who are doing data over cable. It is their way to help insure there are some applications for the digital set-top boxes. It doesn't mean GI endorses the products.

In the words of Jim Cramer, fraud-u-net. FRAUD-U-NET.

Just my opinion of course. Everyone should do their own research and not rely on what I or anyone else posts in this forum in making any investment decision.
