I DID IT!! I DID IT!! Today, I was officially appointed deputy interim watchdog by Sheriff Steve Stitle as he spends a few days recovering from Peak trauma in the islands...(Not Maui, by the way) Anyway - I'm proud to announce that I was able to secure correspondence with the company on my first day in office! Yes, Peak is alive... This, today, from MaryBeth...who apparently has replaced Claudia...who probably replaced someone else... **** FROM PEAK **** (addressed to Deputy Watchdog Willy!) Thank you for your comments and inquiry. We have some good news for you. The NetMagnet shipping schedule is now firm. We have concluded an internal beta program of NetMagnet and are now moving to the delivery stage. Approximately 1000 users will receive "final beta" later today. If you registered as a beta tester you will be able to enter a contest for best idea, feature or bug found. The prize is a digital camera. PeakSoft has shipped the first retail version to duplication and will be delivering it to retailers in mid January. The testing will continue through the next three weeks with new features and any fixes delivered via the updater. General availability of a pre-relase on the Web will commence just after Xmas, since we want to have staff present during download times. We are aware that you and other shareholders are concerned about delays in shipping NetMagnet as well as a lack of news. News in the form of retail information, sales, early reviews will flow from the product release. Preliminary response to demonstrations has been excellent. Editors and analysts like the positioning and feature set, but need to "use" the software. A Comdex update is on the web, we did over 1000 demo's and received significant VAR interest. BB Listing should proceed immediately upon completion of the audit by KPMG, current date for final is first week of January. The company elected to audit rather than have KPMG review older statements. This reduced expense and paved the way for reporting issuer status. Thanks for your patience, we will get you "real" news as fast as it happens.
