You mentioned wild fire? Check this link out on abc.com. I found it interesting to say the least but no mention of gmgc.

Flickerful-
I don't think that these products which you claim to be vastly inferior to Portico will siphon dollars away from it. I think that each product will find a niche and exploit it, the same what Portico does and will. Some firms don't want or need a VUI. Others want it, but will be reached by Wildfire or Webley sales forces first. If these consumers from that vantage find out about Portico and convert, then this will be a greater boon for Portico than if they never found out at all. Portico is an advanced product, but I hesitate from saying it is the best of breed in all aspects just yet until we can see how the trade press ranks it after rollout, and how the company handles growth in size and subscribership. I am bullish on the product.. but I still look at it in a long term focused manner, and with full realization that other companies in this market may turn greater profitability faster than GMGC just because they do not have the capital outflows that GMGC has incurred.

regards,
JC
