<<Rambus Infringement Suits against Micron and Hyundai in Germany Delayed>> Well, thats just great....I tell ya....I am about ready to give up on ole rmbs......Remember when freeus made the bet about turning 100k into a million with volty, and then I followed with my bet for six pack of cheap beer to turn 10k into 100k.......well,volty reco'd the may 75's....did my own dd of course, but wen't ahead and took the plunge and bought them. Don't blame volty, only blame myself as I am the one that hit the buy button, but at this point those damned calls are worth $2 if I am lucky and probably less today....after buying for like $15+ apiece....plus of course the stock, which I got at like $90.......... Been nothing but FUD and BULL$HIT ever since I got involved with rmbs.Like volty, I have kept the faith because IF all their patents hold up, they could make alot of $$'s.....but, now I am faced with these may 75's which have no chance in hell of doing a thing with the constant delays and downward spiral of the stock.....then as far as the stock goes...if they lose anything in court, rmbs will drop like a rock....and even if they win, I don't know how comfortable I am holding a company that generates their revenue from customers that are pissed about paying. Lets face it....the sucess of most businesses is derived from your customer base...give em a good product at a good price and make them happy...the product and price do not matter in this instance because no matter the quality or the price, the customers will never be happy and will always look for a way to get out of paying...whether it be by lawsuits, new technologies or whatever.... Anyway, I se how rmbs could possible be a money making machine and see huge gains....I also see alot of fud and muddy waters in the future.......I sure hate selling the calls and/or the stock, but at this point, I really dont know what to do...the calls are about worthless.....the stock...well, at least it's still in the 40's...for now....I'd hate to wait and see it end up being a $5 stock.....hmm, what to do, what to do.....besides volty, and other RMBS holders still around....what do yall think??
