All; I still haven't gotten my split-shares received into my account at NDB. Are they totally useless or are others having a problem as well? My Fidelity shares are there... I mean shoot, what if I wanted to sell them or something? Should I call the SEC or someone else, or is this fairly common? TIA.

mkelly, ICTV is private, right? Or, have you looked into this? Thanx, for that post. The poster seemed to be getting a good grasp on the evolving market. But, the tornado is swirling, ....hard to see ......I'm thinking more and more of a basket approach. LDIG seems like a good one shot basket....... And, GMST seems like a Gem shining through the turbulence....

mkelly, regarding the post and the statements about worldgate (wgat) and others. i am in complete agreement with all here that gmst is gonna be huge. it is already huge in my portfolio. there seems to be a lot of competition after you get to the internet from your tv...the companies involved here are on your list, wink, lbrt, optv, iatv. the two areas where i see little competition are the epg/ipg which is locked up by gmst. and getting to the internet from your tv which seems to me to be wgat. do you know if any of the others can actually get you to the net, or do they get you around after you use wgat to get there? if it is the former, wgat is gonna be huge. if it is the latter, i need to sell my wgat shares. as long as wgat considers web tv to be their only competition, i think it is the former. tia, unclewest
