Bob, I won't try to answer for Rick, but I do want to address some confusion in your questions:

(1) First, algorithms are software, and they are different than applications (which are also software). So you can easily have an IV product with IDT algorithms and an health care application on top of it (even an application originally developed, or partially developed, by NRID).

(2) Second, since NRID sold this application to IV, they do not make any deals on hardware or algorithm choices. That right belongs to IV -- the owner of the application. NRID's involvement in the application called Privacy Curtain ended when it sold the product to Integrated Visions.

Bob,

My understanding was that IV was using the authentication software from Identicator and that IV didn't care which hardware they used. I must admit I didn't try to clarify what she meant by "software". My own assumption was that Integrated Visions had created their own software to do the specific things they wanted to do with Privacy Curtain and the Identicator algorithms were incorporated somewhere into the application.

If you would like me to try to find out more - to be absolutely certain - I'll try to see what I can find out.

In the meantime, I'm just thrilled that IDX is involved in such a large installment. Of course, we have no idea at this time how much money is coming into IDX from this project.

Rick
