Thanks for your continued interest. A listing on NASDAQ is a goal for most high-tech companies - Wi-LAN included. We are considering our options at all times. We have not filed for a US listing but plan to do so under the right circumstances. Do you feel a listing on the Toronto Stock Exchange would give you better access to information? Regarding the corporate name, we have not considered changing it. The abbreviation for wireless local area networks, as you probably know, is WLAN, which is awkward. Wi-LAN was a clever choice. As our role in WLANs has a potential to expand due to the recent IEEE activities with regards to the IEEE802.11a draft standard, we should not confuse the market in the short term. When you associated the name with a Chinese company, did you see it written as Wi-LAN or as Wi-lan? We could consider changing the name as we come closer to a filing on a US exchange. Thank you for your input on the matter.
