To the contrary, I think Jimmy's brilliance lies in having identified a marketing niche and going after it. While I choose not to comment publicly about the specifics of our company (that is for Jimmy and Roger to do!), I will say that the essence of niche marketing is finding a business opportunity segment that is so small that the big boys either overlook it or aren't interested in it. I think Indonesia and Russia are great examples. Look at the negative comments that no one even has a phone in those countries let alone computer access. My boy offered that up to me when dgiv first released some of the contracts. Well, I think that's great. I'm glad they don't all have phones and internet access because that provides a rich, long term opportunity for our company to establish roots, develop relationships, and future business contacts in these countries while nobody is looking. Moreover, DGIV has technology innovations that puts them in a superior position vs even the big boys so I'm not sure that will matter so much. Look obviously when any of these markets do get so big as to attract the attention of the big boys, we will already by there and poised to either work in partnership with them or perhaps even ultimately be bought out by a large telephony company. Personally, that's why I see happening down the road. So, whichever way it goes, we'll all be okay regardless. I leave the business worries to JC and company. I worry more about the baseless negative rumoring that persists and makes the honest investors shy away from what I believe is and will be a great long term investment.
