Here is a copy of today's release for anyone who didn't see it.

Michael, any idea of the total value of the contracts and how many quarters they will apply to? Do these orders force any upward revisions in your earnings and revenue estimates or are they just business as usual?

Hi Michael,

I was wondering if you have any comments on the company and stock price at this time. Where do you think ISD is with respect to their buy back? Who do you think is the nearest competitor to ISD in the security area and who is the closest competitor in the control device area?

How long until we stay over 4.00 per share?

Thanks in Advance.
