Rats! I think. Down we go.. $4.25 last I looked. It appears the benefits of the WaveMeter for Wall Street still seem too far off. Unless some OEM's and broadcast media moguls with content providers come out and say with certainty they intend to start significantly contributing to their bottom lines in the near future in e-commerce with the WaveMeter, I think we're going to get ignored. The analyst's can see Yahoo! on the Net, therefore they "believe." They cannot see the WaveMeter on anything yet, therefore they do not "believe." Sigh, Marty

No consumer applications? "...In the end, most software industry analysts agree that metering devices will eventually be used with expensive, business-to-business content. But for consumer applications like games, experts are more pessimistic." Which "software industry analysts" agree? THE ONES THAT LACK ANY IMAGINATION!!!!!!!!!! Piss on 'em.. We can all think of a thousand ways to show these fools wrong. So help me out here! Would anyone here like to subscribe to a pay-per-use-of-your-time-before-you-go-to-bed-reading-club? Just like listening to the radio, only better. No commercials, no agitprop of "news," no cant of DJ's voice to interrupt while you sip your warm milk. Lulled by any and every book you'd liked to have read but didn't purchased because it was too thick and you didn't have the time to read it nor the money to spend given the exorbitant cost of books and audio tapes. (That you really want to "own" so they could look pretty sitting on a shelf gathering dust for others to see how well read you are?) Sure, for sure... Amazon.com is a content provider of literature. Stock's doing silly well. But competition is going to kill 'em. So let's start by proving how wrong the fools are by supplementing the Net with all the content of all the books in the world (fully illustrated and annotated if you please) for your listening pleasure. Any book you want to hear for less than a dollar on-line total. It's coming. When the WaveMeter meets your virtual on-line book store. I'll start by having read to me Yasser Seirawan's books on Playing Winning Chess. (I've takin' a personal lesson from Yasser on the end game; fascinating stuff) Anyhow, what better way to learn how to play chess (or any other game) with one of the world's best than to have read to me his own methods of winning the game while my computer allows me to work out the annotations during (on-line instruction) or after (off-line practice) my session? No "consumer" for games and books, music, art and tits and ass. Ya right! Sincerely, Marty

Sorry... That was really too long winded.. I should practice being more terse. I should have said that "experts" who can't think ahead to the consumer applications of less costly and far more readily available access to nearly inexhaustible information and entertainment on-line are one and the same with those types who do not like to think that their children masturbate. (And certainly won't admit that they ever did or do either) Wake up Wall Street! WAVX is worth far more than Yahoo! Foofaraw on you, Marty
