i'm not overly concerned about IDC's long term share price as i believe I've completed enough due diligence to satisfy my own understanding of what they have and where they are ultimately going with it. only a completely daffy management team at this point could screw up what they have at this point; and i don't see that as the case. when you have the leader of the ITU IMT2000 consortium personally visiting little IDC in King of Prussia; i guarantee he isn't making this house call to simply say hi. nevertheless i will try and review Bill's site this weekend. as for "boosterism"; those who are short a company can deliver all the absolute trash and incorrect information on a company they want by tacit use of doubt (constructing doubt), but those who are hopeful must be wary of being labeled a "boosterite" lest he or she be sued by the likes of Bux type holders? in your thinking you've labed Bill's site potentially guilty of "boosterism" (whatever that is). what then, is the opposite of boosterism? the yahoo message board? shouldn't the yahoo message board be shut down due to the total load of ... there? what is your definition of free expression? IDC has significant amounts of intellectual property which will be applied to the WCDMA model; is working with Nokia on a data overlay, has developed convertable TDMA models, has TDMA models, and so on. did you see CEO of Price Communications interview on the floor today? if this isn't boosterism what is? one of IDC's problems is that the management has not (can not?) talked up their future to the degree they know they can. this latter phenomenon is due in part, i believe, to the legal presence on their management team. thank GOD Jacobs isn't an attorney.
