Jim, et.al ... always had a suspicion that this decision by the FCC represented a successful lobbying effort by some of Wi-LAN's competitors to erase the advantages of Wi-LAN's lead, and delay the success of the OFDM Forum. That is exactly my view since the day "that" paper ran the FCC item as if it were management misrepresentation. The press' inability to analyze Wi-LAN ever since then strongly suggests to me they ( the press) were manipulated. Some one told the paper where to look, and what to write. It had to come from an organization with a close watch on FCC decision making. Just trying to find that sort of info today on the FCC site is hard for us; someone knew where to look/ask. However, as an investor, it is a good long signal, especially at today's prices - imo. ..rr

Excellent Points, Jim. After reading about your several "associations" .... I would say that Wi-Lan turned a Near Disaster , into a Minor Setback, and than came back with Revenge, in the form of a Killer MCDSS Product. ( Teeth of a Piranha , eh ) Thanks for recalling & analyzing these happenings. Old, weak in mind & memory, Mardy.
