dualstar is a tiny little company w/o infrastructure and revs of less than 100 million last year, not to mention idtc does not install a/c and security systems.

idtc does not come up with original ideas, but instead enhances ideas and takes up a place. see voip or phone cards or.... i am unsure what the hangup is on having to have an original idea.

as idtc entered voip, this is a natural extension of their current infrastructure.

Dualstar comparisons to Brix,

I looked at their web pages and see them as a fairly small player at this time. They install a broad range of products but seem more focused on the installation of products from other vendors. Some of what they install is out of the range that Brix is interested in, such as heating and cooling systems. And, I suspect they are having cash flow problems.

I think people need to understand that this is a market where there is room for lots of players. IDTC/Brix can do very well by getting even 1% of the market since almost none of it is wired yet.

And, although I like MD1derfull, I have no interest in listening to his advice that I listen to ANYTHING Steve Fancy writes or suggests. I have heard it all, repeatedly, and don't find him credible for many reasons, none of them recent. He seems to think he understands things better than anyone else. I don't. I understand them well enough to take my own advice and do well enough to please me. And, my own advice is a combination of what I gather from many sources and my own rational decisions. I listened to his words, for a while, but found him even more bearish than H60 is bullish. And, H60 tends to be right about the things that matter to me, such as what businesses and announcements are coming. Eventually, the market should reflect that underlying value. Short term, the market is foolish. They value companies that lose money highly, and deprecate those that make money.

Unlike some of you that worry about ancient history from 2 years ago, I am only around since May and 80-90% of my shares are just a few months old. I have interest in making plenty in the short term and even more in the long term.
