One more comment on the arbitrations. They were announced almost immediately after the announcement that NTN really did have to pay out $1 million plus to INNN in patent trial losses. Everything about those cases was sealed from the public, which I do not believe was an accident. INNN because Lockton wanted the money shielded from creditors so he could use it in his legal pursuit of TCI. NTN because they HAD been telling everyone that they had not lost any judgements to INNN. So for both company's purposes silence was best. I also "suspect" that NTN wanted a bone to throw to shareholders so they were given the "arbitrations" to play up. Just a hunch, but it changed nothing major in their business and didn't give them any further rights to use the INNN patents in any other way. Dwight
