Microcap & Penny Stocks : Microvision (MVIS) -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

XYBR/IBM which is better... having worked with large and small companies I can tell you that the large companies are by-in-large stuck in the mud mostly due to the Not Invented Here (NIH) attitude. They would rather sell you a series of low risk, incremental step products than a leap technology. If you want something innovative, look to the small, risk driven, companies... XYBR is a much better choice than IBM to get this tech on the street. IBM only SOUNDS more impressive... XYBR IS more impressive.

re relationships : I too would like to see a major partner for MVIS but the list of "partners by proxy" is growing. Anybody with an interest in XYBR or CREE now has an interest in MVIS. GE's Pension Trust only put in a small sum but they are not in the business of flushing money down the toilet. The list of other investors in Gemfire (Intel, Eastman Kodak, Kleiner Perkins) last Friday was impressive, did you see that MVIS PR ? My bet right now is that XYBR's IP will bring IBM to the table (in fact I am guessing that IBM is kicking and screaming before signing the deal they'll need to actually sell that wearable). The potential for MVIS if IBM capitulates to XYBR becomes even more stupendous, imho. XYBR's patents have already been tested twice and held. In patent law, that which does not kill us makes us stronger, is my understanding. Interestingly, it was about this time last year that I was hoping (I'd say "expecting", but I would not credit my confidence at that time so far) Ericsson would capitulate on their CDMA action vs Qualcomm. A lot of QCOM/CDMA "true believers" have sure crawled out of the woodwork since then. You can mark that date on the QCOM chart without knowing when it happened, because it's the start of the now-legendary Qualcomm "hockey-stick".
