Thanks for keeping us up to date about your views on WIND. It's great to get your insight at important junctures and to help sort out developments. Your comments about Internet Appliances coincide with an speech made by the CEO of CISCO: "To show off potential networking capabilities, Cisco displayed an impressive home set-up where lights could be adjusted via a Web browser and mood settings -- like "romantic evening" with a fire, low lights and music -- could be programmed and turned on at the push of a button. Cisco executives showed how a home could use a phone, television and run real-time video via the Internet on a personal computer using one cable line. Chambers said the network connection could be used to control everything, from a microwave oven (which was displayed with a Web browser in the window) to heating. The demonstration, powered by technology created by Echelon, a maker of interoperable control networks, boosted shares of Echelon." Interesting coincidence, or were you also at the show? Echelon went exponential last week. So it seems that Internet Appliances are starting to impress money managers. cbs.marketwatch.com
