The company has itself targeted a year-end time frame for the Carrier phase of the roll out. Not that they are completely in charge of their own destiny, but they have been on target thus far.

You may be right in that what may be announced are market trials commencing by the Carriers as a step forward from the current internal trials by the Carriers.

I personally feel we will see a faster time frame than you feel will occur. I think the Carriers see the urgency to remain ahead of the curve in this rapidly emerging field. I also feel that Wildfire took so long to be accepted by a Carrier because the field wasn't maturing so quickly a few years ago. The Motorola's of the world were not knocking on the door over the past three years. I also have a feeling that GMGC's business model and platform technology probably suits the Carriers more effectively.

With either time frame I agree that GMGC has enormous potential to be a market leader in this field.

What do you think about the Sec filing and the partial divestiture of Data Rover?

Regards.

Seconds Out.

Beautifully put, JC.

I just have to interject these reality checks every now and again, as people often see the stars looming close when they are in reality very very far away.

How many times have we looked out into the stock universe,
and become transfixed by entities pretending to stardom? :-)

Especially when they are sometimes black holes?
(This is not a reference to GMGC, just some light philosophy)
