TOM GORDON: How have you been? Yes, Bid.com was quite a ride. I picked up 5,000 shares at $2.50/share and cashed in at $26.00/share. I could have sold at $33.00/sh. I was real lucky last year because I also owned Cybersurf at 0.33/share and that went to a high of $4.50 and Microforum at $2.00 which went to around $8.00/share. Since then, I've made a move to the new frontier of Internet in Europe. I picked up a few shares of Euro-eBay, the nickname for QXL.com (QXLC:Nasdaq) and London Stock Market (QXL). They're running head-to-head across Europe with eBay Person to Person eBay style auction. eBay moved from Cdn.$24/share to Cdn.$1000/share in the USA before the big split. About a 4000% increase. I hope QXL.com is 1/4 as lucky. I bought QXLC last month at US$14.00/sh they are now over US$17.00/sh. I also purchased X-Stream Network (XSNI-Nasdaq) an ISP FREE Internet company for about US$2.00/sh. Unfortunately, they're in the OTC-BB the Nasdaq jungle. I'm hoping they will shake themselves clear. XSNI is moving across Europe like a house on fire, with free Internet in 4 countries so far. Yesterday I purchased a few thousand shares of Infowave Wireless (IW:TSE). Wireless is going to be hot business and I have a good feeling about this company.

TOM: When I bought Infowave yesterday I was thinking they had 50 million shares outstanding. Only to find out last night they only have 17.5 shares outstanding. that's I think 21.5 million fully diluted and 10 million in the float.? That was EXCELLENT NEWS for me. I might pick up a few more this morning based on those low share numbers . When Infowave were $5.20/share I understand they were only half the company that they are now. Then I suppose we can look forward to a Nasdaq listing next year for Infowave.?? On Business World last night, CBC-TV, one of the pro's said when talking about Wi-Lan (WIN:TSE) going through the roof, he said something along the lines "the wireless companies is where the action is going to be". When will Wi-Lan stop jumping over $4.50/day every day since the TSE move.??--Good luck.
