I understand your looking askance at the way management has "earned" its optional interest JT.

But I wouldn't put too much stock in the categorization of our institutional holders.

They may know trading and stock manipulation inside and out, but they don't know squat about the prospects for this company's IP/products. All they know on that topic is what they're told... And how accurate do you think that is when the company itself has been announcing the TI products since the fall of 2004?

These high turnover fund managers are in because of one thing only. They had the opportunity to sign up for a chunk of the QI business and go short in advance of their issuance. Or if not that, then you can be sure they've got some other trading scam they're playing.

At least I would certainly have no qualms betting your life that none of the funds with 200k shares or more, that came in with or after the QI stock sale, are relying on "expected" revenue/earnings growth to make their "quick bucks." If you go back and look at the stock prices between 2004 and 2005 when Galleon came and went, you'll see a similar price pattern since last September. At current prices they could easily see a $3 price run-up without any RMTR news at all, much less an acquisition.

Just as one example, L'Intel's "news" of a PCRAM sample chip is supposed to be out in the next 30 days or so. If it doesn't appear or appears with wimpy specs like the 10^8 r/w cycle endurance who knows how the market will react? There are any number of non-RMTR news "events" like that which could turn up at any time any where.

In the absence of an iron clad trading scheme, I'll put my money on such non-RMTR market developments before counting on either a buy out or earnings to get me where I want to go.
