Is that big run or big runs? You probably think AOL is a niche product. Now go back to bah bah black sheep.

Wearable computers is only a niche product for now. It is simply an idea too far ahead of its time that is too easy for others to duplicate (despite claims of patents). You may not find them worn by the public but the number of potential applications at work is quite significant. Never got a chance to short XYBR because I don't like shorting "cult" stocks- too many believers. At this level it might even be a trading buy. Mostly I just avoid it. Eric

I have no position in XYBR myself, but I do have to say something. 10-15 years ago, everyone laughed at the thought of the typical citizen having a computer in their home. Thruout history, there has always been the naysayer, and there have always been the dreamers. We walked on the moon....and now we make regular flights into space. We have sattelites in orbit that can see you when you are peeing. I can buy a small hand-held device (GPS) that can tell me where I am in the world at any minute and can point me in the direction I want to go. All this stuff at one time was laughed at by someone. Always keep your eyes wide open, and never bash the dreamer. Because if it weren't for the dreamers, we would still be.......well, we'd just be doing a lot of things differently right now. I certainly wouldn't be communicating with you right now if it weren't for the dreamer.
