Limited to 450 leaders, this is a close-knit assembly where CEOs, journalist, financiers, scholars, and public officials rub elbows with the men and women who impact, through their products and services the lives of countless individuals and organizations. best.com Markman may be a participant in the roundtable discussion on Speech-Recognition Technology on September 9th. best.com It is, however, interesting to note that the following three persons associated with GMGC will also be in attendance and as keynote speakers: (1) Bill Gates, (2) President and CEO of France Telecom, (3) Executive Vice President of Philips.

NOTE From JC: MCI already has a Unified messaging product= NetworkMCI contact. They sell it via NetworkMCI, but it is still a MCI product and is sold through existing MCI sales channels. I cannot see that MCI would develop their own product and then sign on to resell someone elses? Contact has most of the functionality of Portico, sans the VUI. They even have pre-recorded media content, news, stock quotes etc. Board members often act for their own personal interests not their corporate ones. Possibly MCI will not officially affiliate with Portico. BTW: I have tried contact as well as each of the other 9 Portico competitors, and still think Portico is the best!! ????? - Announcement of 100,000th subscriber ????? - Short interest drops below 2 million shares ????? - Short interest drops below 1 million shares ????? - 1st carrier sign up ????? - second NOC announcement. ????? - Microsoft converts convertible preferred shares (X million) ????? - there are several rounds of convertible shares ????? - warrants that can be exercised Info on some schedules as to when these shares could be forced to convert. Many of the shares may go for years before they convert: sec.yahoo.com ????? - possibility of a general market crash, although GMGC seems to trade to its own drummer Please add to
