Big Bull- have no fear GIC will rise again... By the way GIC is in Horsham, PA not Philly. Here is what I have heard from a source I believe to be reliable: -Sony is interested in the other 95% and had a 120 day option from the January 5th announcement to buy everything. -the CEO, Ed Breen, has been in Japan for two weeks. I think that at this price whether my information is correct or not (and I think it is) the price is very reasonable. Any one else hear anything???

Kevin, << Interesting on you're IR call >> I tried email from 2 different addresses from their home page. Both came returned as bogus. I found a 3rd and asked GIC about alliances with ACTV, as ACTV likes to be associated with GIC set-top solutions. I wanted to hear it from GIC. This email flew, but zero response. I hope someone from GIC follows these threads. Thus far it speaks poorly of management in my opinion, and all will fail or succeed by management alone. Strike 2, with pitch 3 in the air. These guys love stockholders when they need our money at IPO. Give it to them and only the winners see us as part of the team, while the losers are off spending without looking back to the shareholders. Larry
