Rex,

I distinctly remember reading the analysis that you and Jerome wrote up in late 1997. It answered alot of questions and put the entire investment case into perspective. The difference now is that market demand for the target products is snowballing, several competing formats have fallen by the wayside (and several new have arrived), MMC is precocious (and will likely have an abbreviated adolescence), and the stock chart will likely be a mirror image (along the abscissa) of most of 1998. We have retail market demand blowing into our sails. We have also been basing around $12.00 for many weeks. And, as we all know, the longer the base, the stronger the rise.

Let's hope that we have a full head of steam going into earnings' day and that "the street" is pleasantly surprised.

Creative MP3 Pocket Player Technology

MP3 has become the hottest audio compression standard of the internet. MP3, short for MPEG Layer 3 is the latest digital-audio compression technology offering CD-quality sound with a compression ratio of up to 12:1 the original file size. Users have unlimited access to the latest and greatest MP3 files from classical to jazz, hard rock to top 40 from popular bands to up-and-coming artists. To completely personalize your portable music solution, users can create their own audio portfolio from a currently owned CD collection, or mix and match with downloaded MP3 files for the perfect portable audio combination.

The Creative MP3 Pocket Player technology featured at Comdex offers up to 60 minutes of digital-audio playback with the 32MB of onboard flash RAM. Using Smartmedia, removable memory used in various portable devices such as digital cameras, users can upgrade their MP3 player to 30 or 60 additional minutes of continuous playtime with additional 16MB or 32MB upgrades. Data and other audio files can also be stored. Weighing slightly over 2 ounces, and small enough to fit in your pocket, the Creative MP3 Pocket Player is non-mechanical, meaning continuous skip-free playback even during active use. Features include mode, shuffle, repeat, random, next track, and intro playback for complete portability. Headphones, an AA battery, and a parallet port connector for your PC are included.
