Michael. >> LS-120: LS-120 seemed to try to reach for the OEM first, but with a lack of demand fell back upon retail. With the firmly entrenched competition (Zip) at retail, they've only been moderately successful after taking huge price concessions. >> The demand was so so but lack of supply was really a big problem for LS-120 in its early stage. Now the production problem seems to solve. But unless Sony really failed to deliver HiFD or the HiFD is too pricey (like other Sony's consumer products) else there is more reason for people to buy HiFD then LS-120. aC

M. Coley, D. Stempson - Help! I sold all of my SYQT shares and bought IOM on your and D. Stempsons recommendations. What do I do now that IOM is down 30%? Should I write covered calls or buy 50k more shares at this bargain basement price? Will it go lower? My broker called this morning about a margin call or something, should I mortgage my house and buy more? There's no way the share price of IOM could go lower than 7 is there? I put all of my kids college money into this baby. You've always said that people should be in IOM for the long haul but I'm even down on the shares I bought in Jan of last year. Please help me. What do you recommend?
