The content of these releases is expected to be the announcement of more contracts, alignments with other companies, and increased sales. Company Outlook theStockGroup has been watching e.Digital and has wanted to publish this information for some time. Even with the latest rise and fall of the stock value, we feel that this stock can still do better. e.Digital's partnership with Lucent Technologies and Texas Instruments puts them in an emerging market early. As more and more internet users gain faster internet connections, the MP3 music business could flourish. Rumors of a product developed with Sony make e.Digital a large player in this market. A few more contracts rumored on the way give e.Digital a modest income with a bright future. theStockGroup foresees the stock to reach $4-6 (>70% return) in the near future (<3 months) and $8-12 (>250%) long term (1 year).
