I agree about bargain hunting being tough work. And if you're trading, I don't think that you simply establish a low price that you will buy in at. You've got to follow the market very closely , take your clues from the action, and be extremely nimble. With a stock like IATV, which has such longer term potential, you also take the risk of being whipsawed out of it. My choice in this case is to stand pat and not try to grab in-between dollars during the wait (although I'm ready to pick up more should there be a panic bout of selling). I don't want to chance a sudden news item sending the stock up 1 1/4 points while I happen to be out of it while waiting to scalp. Art, thanks for the response. I would further like to see, whether from Bridge or the company or a partner, an example or two illustrating buying an actual product using your remote in your living room as the experience would compare to doing it with Wink's or any other competitor's technology. To non-technical people coming to this board (practically everyone) that's the only thing that'll convincingly demonstrate ACTV's exclusivity and/or superiority vis a vis e-commerce, which is where, I think, the significant interactivity profits will be. Without supportive evidence, declarations that ACTV's patents grant it a virtual monopoly will be discounted as wishful thinking and typical message-board hyperbole.
