They are too busy counting the $$$ the recent appreciation in WIND's stock has brought to their portfolio!

>>Heck, I even miss Mark B.<<

As for him, rumor has it that a despondent Mark was last seen heading towards the Golden Gate Bridge...

;)

What has happened to this thread? Allen Benn? Michael Greene? David Lehenky? Jim Privat? Mitchell? mac? Heck, I even miss Mark B.

Can't speak for the others, but I'm still hanging out reading the thread every day, and still haven't ever sold a share of WIND. Nice to see it climbing up again.

I'm no embedded expert, so haven't felt there was much I could add to the discussion of late. I continue to feel that Wind's position as market leader in combination with the trend towards embedding chips in "everything" will be our friend for years to come. And when my wife's Win CE "palmtop" computer hung the other day and required a hard reset, it may have caused her to frown mightily, but it sure brought a large smile to my face. :)

Still a happy long-term holder,

Jim Privat

Richard, I am happy to report that I'm still on board and recovering nicely from a hard disk crash. It's hard to imagine the trauma of losing all those bookmarks and favorites until you've experienced it -- but life goes on.

I'm trying to come to grips with the Qualcomm/MS alliance and the use of WinCE in Qualcomm phones. I thought Qualcomm had better taste!

Even more confusing is the direction MS is taking in the embedded market. Until now, we have been led to believe that CE would be modified to meet the needs of this market; however, there is now rumor of NT being used to develop an offering:

zdnet.com

Why would Microsoft form an alliance to develop a product utilizing a system for which even they have lost hope? Why would Qualcomm buy into it?

In the meantime WIND keeps on blowing along, meeting expectations and performing as we expect. What could be better?
