Juli, It sounds like you have been motivated to do some serious due diligence on DCI here recently, that's good. Will you be coming to the meeting so that you can ask some of your questions? I know that the focus has been on getting DCI sold, but I also know that Joe has always conducted business as far as I am aware with the awareness that DCI needs to be an ongoing concern if we do not get an acceptable offer. I hope you can get all of your questions answered, and if you are not going to the meeting I would be glad to try and pose some of them for you.

James

Jewel,

You write: "Dialogic has claimed for some time to be the only one with real time fax over the internet. They provide hardware and software. Are we using their products, or some other product".

We are using our own proprietary hardware and software. It's my understanding these were developed in Canada with research that was funded in whole or in part by the Canadian government. Out of this an entity called Cyberfax somehow resulted. We then evidently bought the rights to the technology (both hardware and software) when we bought Cyberfax. I assume (never got an answer to this) the proprietary hardware is manufactured by what is now the Cyberfax division. I don't remember (if I ever knew) the patent status of the technology.

I agree with James, keep up the good (DD) work!

Dan

I'm in Miami, so I splurged for a long-distance call to Interglobal Telephone Company in Fort Lauderdale -- this is one of 2 companies mentioned in the annual report who are offering Cyberfax. The number is (954) 525-0240. When I called, I asked the main operator if this company offered long-distance faxing services, and she didn't seem to know what I was talking about. I had to be a little persistent with this question until she finally said, "let me put you through to someone". The man I ended up speaking with acknowledged that they were using the Cyberfax technology, but I got the impression it wasn't exclusive. He said the internet faxing is most cost-effective to Asia, Africa, and S America. I asked if business was good and he said it had been picking up. Apparently, they make contracts with companies, he said he had just signed one with Disney, to perform this service. I told him I was a DCI shareholder just trying to see how a product of our company's was doing, and that his company had been mentioned in our annual report as one of the companies offering Cyberfax. He said he had just been talking to someone from DCI earlier in the afternoon. It was sort of an awkward conversation, since I didn't really know the right questions to ask, and he wasn't exactly keen on chatting about how his company was doing. He offered to quote me prices for the service, but I just thanked him and said it sounded like things were OK.

I'm sure someone else might be able to get more info than me, but overall, the conversation led me to believe that things were generally on the up and up.

Todd

Hi Juli,
Those are all very good questions, thank you for bringing them up. Another suggestion might be to upload your post to the DCI web to see if anyone might answer them before the Shareholders Meeting. Thanks again, Toni
