Hi Archer; <<What I meant by saying it didn't matter if the trial was a success or failure is: If it is a failure, there will never be a formal press release, but they can get the stock price up with a "stealth press release." If it succeeds, they will have a formal press release, which might spike the stock, but then it could come back down as the DayTraders move on to other stocks. The stealth method can move it up gradually, and then hold it there as everyone waits for the real thing to come out.>> You know Archer, you think too much and watch too many movies. There is no two ways about it. A successful test with aol/digital cities and future rollout would be huge for the co. I don't give a damn how the traders trade it. Deals, deals,deals. They will add up. I maintain that this co is suspect only because of a miscalculation in timing concerning events that were totally out of their control. I know they have spoken of great things in the past and have disappointed but the timing of a rollout is in the hands of the mso's. Srcm will deploy as the mso's deploy. No sooner,no later. <<It is also possible they are trying to force DigitalCities into allowing a press release. This could be very important now if they have bad news that must come out in the 10K.>> Are you suggesting something?? DigitalCities news would be great anytime. Don't insinuate a problem in the 10Q unless you have more to say. What might that bad news be?? Let's be a Sunday morning qback instead of a Monday morning one. regards; mw
