Here's something I find interesting, although I'm not sure what it means. Last night, IBM announced that it was closing down it's Cryptolope unit: news.com The old WAVX agreement with IBM (if I'm remembering this right) involved their building interoperability between the Wave system and the cryptolope system. (Here's that announcment: wave.com Looks to me like these two announcements might be related in some way. Maybe IBM sees the WaveMeter as a better route and wants to captialize on it? At any rate, I'm guessing that IBM didn't want WAVX to make their announcement until they'd made the crytolope announcement, so as to avoid confusion. What I'd like to know is, does this agreement have anything in it that guarantees the chips will show up on IBM's computers soon? That must be in the works. When we know that for sure, then we'll really see things move. Whatever's going on, it's nice to have IBM's muscle and money behind our company. And the market likes it too.
