My point is that Aware should be more aggressive with its customers and do a better job of showcasing their technology. Intel licensed Aware's IP a year ago and probably had been working with Aware for a year or more before we heard about it. In the absence of any news why would investors bank on Intel taking this seriously. Intel routinely licenses many technologies but doesnt end up using them all. Small change for them when you look at their R&D budget. So Aware needs to convince investors by letting them know what its customers are doing so that they can assess the company's real potential. Putting out occasional releases on ADI products is not going to cut it. ADI's DSL success is a well known fact and will only bring moderate price appreciation to Aware's stock in the absence of other customer wins. And customer wins does not mean selling a license. The real kicker comes in when investors gain confidence on potential royalties from product shipments. Peace

If you want PR buy the BB OTC stocks...or VRTA. AS for the chipsets in modems,just yesterday I suggested in a PM there's benefit in having people open up modems and reporting what chipsets were in them. We found out TI flashable chips were in USR modems a few years ago on the old USRX thread that way.

Infineon Rolls Out Highly Integrated ADSL Front End Single Chip Front End and Line Driver Solution Cuts Power Consumption and Cost For ADSL Customer Premise Equipment MUNICH, Germany--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 18, 2000--Infineon Technologies (FSE/NYSE:IFX) today introduced a single chip Line Driver and Analog Front End (LiDrAFE) for Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) modem equipment that dramatically boosts integration and cuts power consumption. The device called LiDrAFE (PEB 22715), draws just 800 milliwatts (mW) during full transmit power at maximum ADSL bit rates. The LiDrAFE's high level of integration-- encompassing an Analog Front End, Line Driver, Digitally Controlled Crystal Oscillator (DCXO) and Filters-- delivers an ADSL solution that requires few external components for system design. For equipment makers, that integration means significantly lower costs. Integration of the DCXO onto the chip is an industry first in ADSL and eliminates the need for a separate expensive Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VXCO) to handle modem timing recovery. LiDrAFE has been specially designed with flexible interface options to allow seamless connection to the different ADSL datapumps available in the market. When used in combination with an ADSL datapump, the LiDrAFE provides a modem solution compliant with all major ADSL transmission standards established by ITU-T, ANSI and ETSI. The LiDrAFE is currently available in sample quantities, with volume production scheduled to get underway in the fourth quarter of 2000. The device ships in an 80 pin P-MQFP package and is priced at $9.50 in 100K quantities. A system development platform, called the SMART 22715 Evaluation Board, is also available.
