Angela, never count your Clik!s before you actually hear them... could be an illusion, rather than a "sound" investment. Clik! or should I use Rocky's term "vapor" is just that at the present time... sort of like a chemical bond valence value... could be a +2 or a +4 or maybe a -2 depending on what atom comes close by enough for it to latch on to. Clik! is just a figment of the Comdex at the present time. If we don't see any real OEMs sign up for the Clik!, IOM will have to run with the product themselves and this will cost them quite a lot of money should they not get partners involved to the hilt. I still like the idea of the Clik! system, but there are plenty of hurdles to overcome before it will add even 1 penny to the bottom line... in fact it probably is one very good reason why IOM did not make their numbers as so much went in to head hunting good tech personnel and engineers to work on this and several other developments that are still secret at this time. Maybe we will get a hint of things to come in the CC, but that is yet to be revealed. Don't click that cliker too loud yet! Mel
