Thanks for your response. You make a valid point about SBLive, but I'm finding it hard to believe that this is the only reason for the recent drop in price - I mean its not like CREAF was selling at 40 X earnings. Since their P/E multiple was low to begin with, the dramatic drop in price makes me search for another reason as well. I just don't know what it is yet. Another thing that has been bothering me is that I used to see CREAF products routinely in the Sunday newspaper circulars (Computer City, Office Depot, etc). Now they are getting harder and harder to find in these ads (but DMID is all over the place). Are they simply not pushing their other products enough? If I remember correctly, CREAF has been trying to enter the OEM market and did so successfully about a year ago with contracts with some of the major box builders - when will these sales numbers come into play (or did I just dream about these contracts)? My basic question comes down to this - when (I'm assuming the positive) will we start seeing quarterly revenue figures with 15% - 20% increases? Once we start seeing those numbers, CREAF will move up substantially in price and may even approach the $40/share that some brokerage houses were touting just a few months ago.
