It is good to see the enhancements coming along finally. I like that GMGC is continuing to grow the service. I guess I am not that surprised that the news was a non-event. It seems clear that the whole market segment still suffers from a lack of real acceptance. The Carrier channel is our hope for creating enough recognition of Portico's merits to cause gains in the markets's acceptance of the technology. Getting it in peoples' consciousness, if you will. I agree that it is a positive development to see the other company initiatives beginning to occur on a more frequent basis. It, too, will help to raise the consciousness. I am a little disappointed that this is the news coming out of Supercom as I was hoping for another Internet partnership. I still feel that this area offers more growth potential, though I understand how it's revenue model is even more obtuse than for the virtual assistant service. Anyway. progress is good, and I guess that ultimately these various initiatives- Portico, magicTalk, Kenya - will all come together to stimulate demand within the marketplace. IMHO, it will take some big money from companies that GMGC must partner with to expedite this "coming together". Best wishes to all believers in the magic. Seconds Out.
