Bitstream software is embedded in computer screens, palm-tops,etc. Another rumor on various chat boards is that an annoucement is coming for BITS after the close on monday. Other XML companies have gained 200% in recent weeks, LEAF, INSO, VIAD, FORM, ODIS, & WEBB. Another article to read is from ZDNet dated December 7, at 3:26 PM by Mary Jo Foly. The article outlines how Microsoft is switching to XML. Moreover, Sun's director of global software says "there's not a significant industry thats not working on metadata standards for XML." IMO, XML will be the next hot sector after Linux.
