Glad to see a few more people showing up. I'm a fairly recent buyer, also am awed by the potential. If this is not smoke and mirrors, i.e., if the technology is real, this is a diamond in the rough and one need only buy, sit back, and wait for the world to take notice. But I'm older and wiser than when I first started investing, so have been waiting for technically capable individuals to start posting re the implications of this breakthrough technology. Breakthroughs do exactly that....they break through...so if this is real, it can't be prevented from success. So where are the mathmaticians? We need some real gearheads to come tell us about this.

RavenCrazy, I don't think the future EPS of any stock is "proven" or there would be nothing to this game of investing. In this case, it is even more true in that there is little revenue stream at all at this point. However, as I understood it, they were basically waiting for the final approval of their latest patent and sales would begin. I believe they feel they can make $25 million revs in 12mos on their software products and the $.75 must represent their expected margins, abt 30%. By the way, I think they're looking at this from an Apr 1 - Mar. 31 fiscal year perspective, which they want to adopt. At any rate, the real question is obviously the timing of when sales start and whether they have the customers they think they do. I believe in the later. Having been involved or observed quite a few patent processes, I more question the former. Nevertheless, if that's the case, it's just a matter of time. Mark N.
