Earthdog, NetGain is being delivered now to selected beta customers, Wyse is in my opinion the most important beta. General release and marketing of NetGain will begin in the 3rd quarter, probably be 4th quarter before we begin to see much NetGain revenue. The feedback I have heard from the customers who have had NetGain demos is very positive. I am expecting big things and have picked up more shares recently, but as with all big software roll-outs it takes time and the stock market is waiting for more evidence of success. I had expected the price to be starting a strong uptrend by now, but looks like it will take a bit longer.

Earthdog, you ask questions I am also interested in knowing. I started accumulating shares in BROC/FST since November. Good for the long term capital gain side, but still a concern as to why price is so low. Roger answered your concerns, I feel in an up to date reality - no wishing. I wrote an expert in the SFA field and questioned him what he thought about FSTW, because he didn't indorse any software company in his writings. I didn't ask his permission to print his name but here is his response. "Buddy Clearly I am no Wall St. expert, but I do see a major play for companies wanting to extend their SFA startegy to include channel partners. In that regard I expect what Firstwave is doing to be well received by the market. The key will be how well their beta customers perform." In part this was my request: "I am interested in finding a small company to invest in that has potential. Do you see such a potential with Firstwave? Judging from your papers you are into your field and your opinion would be interesting. Thanks, Buddy" Roger has the right track, I feel in that the success of beta testing will be crucial.
