Rick, i'm feeling the same with regards to the release of resellers. feeling ansy and uncertain. very curious also of how the product and technology is going to be received as i've mentioned before. not short now; very, very long in fact, but maybe not for very much longer if they don't release some more news this week as we approach the 30th. though, another voice in me says that they've been so methodical AND this is there chance to really shine, to not roll out on the 30th would be a catastrophe, imo. would we not see a major (MAJOR) sell-off. AND we really don't know how well the beta testing is going. this is another uncertainty that challenges my staying power. ahhh, the joys of uncertainty and anticipation. i for one am not getting my hopes up, though i'm patient and ready to hit the sell button at a moment's notice. here's hoping (argh, intending) for some good news this week. raven

Yes, I share this anxiety. "Methodical" is absolutely the operative word here. On one hand I applaud it, on the other hand it is beginning to get on my nerves. Expectations are so very high for July 30th. If they don't wow us, really come on strong with strong and substantive PR, tinged with a bit of razzle-dazzle, I suspect we'll take a big hit. These little bones they've tossed us so far just don't have enough meat on them. Most of the really interesting things we've learned have been through other channels. Yes, yes, we know they are trying to be sane and scientific here, trying to avoid their bad past etc. Even so, time is getting short. Sea Otter

Rick, I agree that it is one of those gut check times. However, a number of items should be announced in the next two weeks. I hope we will get some beefier news even this week. Certainly resellers must be announced, and the sooner the better. Specifics as to who are the additional Carriers which are testing the service would be nice. Additionally, they probably have a trick or two up their sleeve. I think GMGC has great long term potential. I hope they don't let any more momentum go away in the short term. A situation has been created that will make it more difficult to push past the 15 3/8 resistance level due to the speculators that inflated the stock price prior to the shareholders meetings, and the subsequent let down. While the short term pricing can get manipulated somewhat, the long term pricing will be controlled by how well GMGC products perform. That is what I am counting on. Best wishes. Get some sleep.
