imo....I am not overly excited about the revenue growth for the first 9 months versus last year....obviously, R and D plus the acquisition had a negative impact on earnings, but still as a whole company revenues remained fairly flat...
So obviously I am buying a story here....a story called wavetop....
It seems to make sense....wireless...free service....real time....faster....
the story gets better due to the CEOs last efforts with Conseco and that he is not taking a salary but is actually compensated as we are with stock value
of course, its hard to ignore the fact that microsoft and intel have given this company validation (and compaq)
my questions are probably the same as most investors....
What are the actual income possibilities of wavetop?
When will the company become profitable?
How will the arrival of cable modems impact the company?
What other technologies are in the pipeline?
If the same information services are already available through Yahoo, are the benefits worth the memory space (and possibly the cost of a television receiver if you are not buying a new computer) thereby making wavetop an interest to the targeted retail consumer?

Responses appreciated

Got a First Call machine on my desk. Just checked again, looks like Reuters has a typo

The (.20) # posted earlier was a Zacks estimate, (.18) is one I can't find anywhere, and (.24) was First Call's estimate. Nothing like a "consensus", huh?????
