Listen, art, I don't care about what you believe, or...
how you feel, OK?
On Wednesday, it became clear IATV would never reach $12 a share.
I did not think it would reach $12 5/8 either by the way. My target
range was $12-13 as I mentioned since at least Monday.
Now, I will post on this board again. Not to pump IATV; IATV does
not need to be pumped. But to try to control your excessive
optimism.
I posted a number of valid concerns. You decided to pick my bad
points, and you discarded the rest. That's your choice.
I'm ready to repeat a few of the valid points:
- WorldGate as a potential competitors: After all they registered a
nice bunch of patents
- Dangerous executive compensation
- The fact that HyperTV is based on the Java TV API might me a low
barrier to entry for ACTV's competitors (because the Java TV API
is only 6-month old)
- Microsoft's deal with AT&T will definitely have a certain influence
on the ACTV/AT&T relationship, not necessarily a good one
- The fact that ACTV is almost never associated with AT&T, Fox, or
Liberty in their press releases, which prevents the perception of
a full endorsement
Now, some very recent news have changed quite a few things...Janus...
Steve Ballmer's comments...Fox...
Between $12 and $13, IATV was fairly priced.
Since then, some anticipated appreciation occurred.
I don't say it's bad. I don't say it's good.
In fact, it sounds good to me since I bought at $12 3/4. :-)
Brief, art, I have come to the conclusion I cannot accept to be chased
out of this thread because I expressed a negative opinion.
So, I guess you will have to leave with my evil nature, dear art.
