The Motley Fool featured DDIM in the Lunchtime News but got the numbers wrong. They said DDIM made $.08 vs. estimates of $.13. They apparently got in the wrong year on the Statement of Operations since the loss was $.23 this quarter vs. earnings of $.08 last year. They also mentioned some of the charges, but forgot to mention that the largest charge was for the write-off of their "silver bullet" - Ardes 2k. I assume that their errors were unintentional. I am surprised that there have not been any analyst downgrades so far. Before the market opened, I was trying to decide if I would cover at $8 or $9. Oh, well.

BellBoy, revenues are stunningly bad! I had predicted a little over $17M for the fourth quarter - instead they achieved only $14.4M: exchange2000.com And these revenues include PIS (Pyramid). DDIM has always been a "growth story". Now that the growth has slowed, this should be the end. And DDIM is admitting (by taking the large write-off) that Ardes 2K is a flop. So much for high gross margin business. How could this have been worse? This is a $2 stock! The real question: Will ZITL or DDIM break into single digits first? Best Regards, Bill
