AVAL has a VP/marketing type guy in New Jersey, where OSFT is based, and they actually had a meeting or two together some time last year. Avalon and Objectsoft are not going to be competitors for a long time, if ever, since AVAL will be going after the immeasurably gigantic "Internet public access" market starting from a base in the health and wellness field, as opposed to OSFT's video store approach. You know, first Internet access terminals (kiosks) in malls, health clubs, hospitals and national pharmacy chains, and then world domination <g>. Although AVAL is a fairly illiquid penny stock at the moment, AHS.com (its shadowy partner who we'll be hearing more from within days or weeks, IMO) is a private company and, consequently, may be a potential IPO someday. One thing's for sure, an item in Time magazine can only be a good thing not only for OSFT, but also for AVAL, USHP, and any other companies in what I think will become an increasingly crowded field. Right now, there are a bunch of "kiosk companies" but most are tiny, underfunded private entities. Eventually, I think the phone booth (or maybe ATM) analogy will prove apt, and there will be Internet access terminals in every public place you can think of.
