Saviorman,
I know that creative stated in the conf call (the qtr befor last) that they had allot of voodoo2 chips but was waiting for ram. I remember something like that they expected ram to be available in may.
I believe voodoo2 boards sales will be down, just because I think they ditched allot of boards onto the market at the begining of the qtr(just my opinion) and sales might have slowed. It will be interesting because they will sale every TNT board they can ship, and I see on EB that they expect Creative Banshee OCT1. ALso 5.1 speakers are supposed to be available this month.

Many new products are ramping and this qtr wil be determined on how fast they can box and ship. Very backend loaded. But every product is new and every product made will be shipped.

I'm concerned about the volume and the going down! Like Bazooka said,he was concerned about what happened last qtr. I kinda felt the big boys got the word before the small investor about a weak qtr and I hope this isnt true this qtr. I can definitely see why Creaf dosnt know about the qtr yet.

Savoirman,
I received an e-mail from a man in Singapore last night that said excitement around Creaf was due to Singapore Press Holdings announcement of share buyback today. Does this sound right?

Savoirman, the S'porians might be rightfully enthusianstic over share buyback. CREAF was more tight-lipped than I have seen when they replied to my message regarding the buyback today. Refused to hint at date, or their position on the finer details of the buyback.

But check this out:
"The 5.1 Desktop Theater speaker system is still on track for release
shortly."
