Of course, we know that you loved one paragraph out of an entire favorable article. In a terrible market, XYBR did pretty well today. Amazing that you could admittedly focus on one tiny part of an article, one opinion to validate your hundreds and hundreds of posts.

Hello Wolff,

I'm trying to get caught up ... been to busy making the industry happen! ;-)

I do not want to put words in your mouth, and so I wanted to clarify your position and make sure that I understand the distinction ...

I'm trying to get clear here what you have been "essentially communicating" ... I'd rather get to what you are specifically communicating.

Are you saying that people want the specific products, and specific brands, and that these are perfect as they are today?

Or are you saying that people want small, convenient, communications and computing devices?

In my opinion this quote is from someone who fails to understand the distinction between an instantiation of current technology and the features and benefits that it provides.

If the argument is about size and power, then I will propose the possibility that wearables are quickly becoming the size of a palm, and will have phone capabilities.

If the argument is about price, then I will propose the possibility that wearables are getting cheaper and will become a "no brainer" purchase for the younger generations.

I want to be clear of specifically what you are communicating ... because I am actively working in the industry to make my vision reality ... so I have a direct hand in the outcome ... and I am committed to that possibility! ;-)

It's going to be cool ...

P.S. I've started to talk with some video production companies to do a documentary on the research also ... but since this is just what I do with my spare time we'll see how the videos come together ... ;-)
