Ha ha ha! Bux can't even find the Neopoint prospectus at the SEC site on his own. Gus, your juvenile posts are getting old. This is the post you refer to: Message 12827136 The post has no clues that it is from the NeoPoint filing and it doesn't even contain the word "Neopoint." How am I supposed to divine that is where it is from? However, it does disclose some things that I would be very concerned with if I were an IDC shareholder but which has received zero discussion here after I brought it up. Stop acting like a 3rd grader. Bux

Gus - my reading skills are just fine. Thanks for your concern. Interesting table % of R&D or Product Development to Total Sales: Year Sales R&D 1995 $ 85.0 $ 9.7 11% 1996 53.7 21.6 40% 1997 43.9 24.0 55% 1998 99.2 17.2 17% 1999 61.4 12.2 20% (9 mos) I'm not sure what it is you are trying to say. I don't see how it supports your assertion that IDC is a turnaround. With shares in the $30..$40 range I disagree with your statement that IDC isn't an earnings story. Just look at what will happen to the price if earnings disappoint. Cash burning is an interesting simile. If I was a shareholder, I would be very worried about a company burning cash for 4 years with revenues predicted to decline. The rest of your post is a great ad for NOK. It has little or nothing to do with IDC. w

InterDigital 4th-Qtr Net Falls 92% on Lower Licensing Revenue King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, Feb. 11 (Bloomberg) -- InterDigital Communications Corp., which makes chips for delivering fast Internet access to cellular phones, said fourth- quarter profit fell 92 percent because licensing revenue declined. The company's shares fell as much as 23 percent. Net income fell to $1.36 million, or 2 cents a share, from $17.6 million, or 36 cents, in the year-earlier period. Revenue decreased 67 percent to $12.4 million from $37.9 million. InterDigital attributed the revenue decline to a strong year- earlier quarter, when the King of Prussia, Pennsylvania-based company received up-front payments from three new patent license agreements. InterDigital's shares fell 7 to 39 1/2 in midmorning trading, and earlier touched 36. Before today, the stock had risen almost eightfold in the past year amid optimism about an increase in cellular-phone use. Feb/11/2000 10:19 For more stories from Bloomberg News, click here.
