One silver lining to this temporary dark cloud is that it will be an absolute blessing for the market to puke all of this pessimism out of its guts before the upcoming VoDSL conference. If Aware does (big if) stand shoulder to shoulder with Intel and announce something dramatic that the analyst's community really wants to hear, the pop could be major, unlike what is happening to Oracle today. (ORCL had killer earnings last night, but the market is so overwhelmingly pessimistic that the positive reaction is definitely strongly muted today.)

Anybody willing to let me borrow $50,000. I promise I will pay it back in April. Let's say April 21. (hehe) I have very little dough left to buy anymore. I will feel like a genius in several months, but I sure feel like a horses arse right now. Does anyone have a date that Aware submitted for their patents? We could possibly do some research at the average duration to process a high tech patent and use that as an estimate. I really think wall street will handle Aware better as a company when they have more of a secure grip on the technology. I think wall street sees Aware as a company that could lose their advantage the minute a new and better solution for DSL comes along. They forget that it took years to get where we are now. We finally are at a point where the years of bickering for standards are starting to show some rewards and I do not think anything will change the fact that DSL is king for several years. Only improvements in DSL (Like VeDSL, etc.) will be changing. The core standards will stay the same just like the V.90 standards. Sorry for the ramblings. It makes the time go by a little faster and the pain a little more bearable. Perry
