Roger, Thanks for the reply. Sorry about not responding earlier, just got back from an unexpected trip. Unfortunately, I don't have any first-hand experience with voice activated programs. They recommend IBM ViaVoice which has to be "trained" for your voice. Some decent info is on their technical support FAQ page in case you haven't viewed it. xybernaut.com I first read about XYBR's MA-IV about 6 months ago in a IEEE magazine and I've been following the stock since. I have heard complaints that the voice interface seriously slows down the system and the processor speed has not been increased for more than a year (233MHz MMX). Also some complaints about battery life being too short. Most of all though, it seems the management of the company was way too optimistic about this years revenues with projections at $40 to $70 million! This is pure speculation as I feel that wearable computers will have a market in the future, and that's what has kept me interested in XYBR. It's pretty exciting stuff, but the question still remains whether XYBR can execute successfully. Thanks again for your response. rll
