Still dreaming after all these years. Andy Seybold said it better than I can. So I'll paraphrase him in an effort to emphasize reality. To wit, the likelyhood that any of these WAP devices are going to spread the Net further than the PC-centric group of afficianados, researchers and Netizens, is ludicrous on the face of it. The Web, the only accessible face of the Internet demands above average intellect, the mired plumbing of the FTP, elm and pine world demands a level of comprehesion not clearly evident in the broad masses of the population. The arcana of 802.11a vs. b vs. g demands the utmost of attention. Can the general public discern the permutations of standards that could evolve from MPEG-2? And yet, that is clearly required in order to evaluate the latest move from HLIT in its disembowelment of CUBE. Could it be that the generalist on Wall Street is clueless? I wonder. Frankly, re: datalink.net. What you smokin' dude. This is a VSE cast off. Get off this nonsense. Lucid, The Puckerbrush Kid

Regarding Datalink.net: Without delving more completely into the filings - datalink is providing content that rides over two-way messaging services such as Skytel and BellSouth Wireless Data. Some quick thoughts: 1. They are OTB-BB - negative; 2. They are a fully reporting company and their filings are professionally prepared and seemingly complete - positive; sec.gov 3. The company is running at a loss and has a need for need capital within 2 quarters - negative; 4. The company has a S3 statement on file to register existing restricted shares for trading - normally I'd say neutral but given the need for additional capital, the follow on offering is going to be more difficult to execute. Many have argued that the narrowband two-way industry will be overrun by messaging services provided over cellular and PCS networks - because the data load placed on a cellular or PCS network from a short message service is almost an afterthought. However, narrowband devices still have two compelling advantages (1) very small form factor (2) very long battery life. I don't have any insight into their content or pricing at this time. ww
