Christopher....I disagree with your post if you will allow me to. I agree year over year if nothing changed, that would be a bad sign. But I have been in this stock for over a year now and quite a bit has changed since then.....remember SIEMENS...wasn't anybody on the board of directors from SIEMENS last year. BTW, might be interesting to note our board if you haven't. Quite a credible group. A year ago, there was not a functioning intranet, there WAS an old and out of date web site(not the current site which is pretty sharp), there were almost no customers, the office headquarters was in a different location, there were 6 employees (now 8 BTW.....who are the other 2 now...hmmm) might make for an interesting research project. A year ago the stock price as I bought was also .15 YEAR over YEAR we are looking pretty good........IMPATIENCE is the PROBLEM here. Now let's put the rest in perspective.......I do not wish to put words in Wally's mouth but here is what I perceived when I read his post. Week over week, what we are talking about here is that the company has not had any negative changes which would effect the fundamentals differently (in a damagin way). i.e. nobody has filed a lawsuit to my knowledge against the company in the last week. i.e. nobody I know of has come forward with the package of services out there at a better price than FNTN (thus putting them at a competetitive disadvantage) i.e. nothing has changed in the Siemens relationship i.e. none of the key management has decided to bolt and leave town etc. etc. What is important here is perspective....if you are looking for a company to put out fluff releases about nothing each week and spend all their time talking about where they are going to go....you are in the wrong company. It is currently (although not for much longer) a non-reporting company It is currently preparing to release financials which the company has said will be out by the 21rst. Let's give them a break and see if they produce on time or not. TIME is the key friends....it's a start up company with a heck of a lot of potential....infact if I found one at a btter price that was for real I would be stupid not to look at it, but from what I've seen with my admitted limited knowledge, it is worth the risk to continue to hold and to add whenever I can to my position Good day to all, jpbp

Come on, Chris. You're more fair than that! Your pejorative interpretation of my "nothing has changed" comment was a totally opposite translation of my point. The comment meant (as you know) that "all is on course." That was the spirit behind my post today as well as Greg's post last night. Had you said that our comments could be taken two ways, I'd accept that argument. I respect and value your viewpoints as always, Chris. Just don't put your interpretations in my mouth. Wally
