Up 2 3/4! Maybe I need to extend the vacation to 14 days. By that time e2 is a ubiquitous standard and all the networks are signed with WX and we have out gained RMBS by April's end. I can dream can't I. Was fairly close to Lee this weekend as I visited friends in Waltham and then the day in Boston. Of course it's 5 degrees the whole frikin time. CHEERS! WAVX to 400 in 2000

Klingerg--thanks for posting the PCWORLD article; it answered a few of my questions regarding datacasting in general. Wish they'd given a little more ink to WaveXpress, but we're (apparently) not as far along as Geocast, so it's understandable. I have to believe that our business model is more attractive (read: profitable) than their's, though...

Klingerg, Eric Brown's article is just so much filler for his computer mag rag. We can expect to be "slighted" by the unimaginative and ignorant. David Sarnoff (1891-1971) founder of NBC, was working for Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co. of America. Although fascinated by wireless technology, he focused his efforts on commercializing radio. In 1915, Sarnoff advocated "bringing music into the home by wireless." He was scoffed at by the Marconi executive team. Sarnoff packed his bags and moved on. Later at RCA, Sarnoff pushed through the first radio sports broadcast in 1921. Radio owners listened as boxing champion Jack Dempsey dropped challenger George Carpentier. Radio sales skyrocketed as America scanned the radio dial for Glen Miller and the news. As head of RCA, Sarnoff was the first to string together radio sounds through telephone lines. In 1926, the National Broadcasting Company's radio network was born. People in Iowa could now listen to a news broadcast from New York. Sarnoff turned the company's resources towards an invention known as the iconoscope, an early television. At the 1939 World's Fair in New York, he delivered another first: a television broadcast... And now we have a joint venture called WaveXpress. Being "pushed" by Sarnoff Corp., Wave Systems, and The Fantastic Corporation. Eric Brown wonders, are we "pushing" things right? And in poor Eric's eyes, "Geocast's approach appears among the most comprehensive and developed." Why? We will never know. We wonder what does it take to gain some respect? Screw Eric Brown, Marty
