Great post, CM. I'd missed the article in Infoworld, and the quotes that you posted only added to my already burgeoning confidence level. I don't have much to add to the question of valuation models--all I know is that if we achieve ubiquity, we ain't gonna be at $11!

An Old List of WAVX Investors, Posted By MIT Student... Tonight, while rooting around, I found an old (1995? 1994?) list of WAVX investors, posted by a then-post-graduate MIT Student who had done some research into Wave Systems and interviewed Peter Sprague. The list has probably already been digested by the RB folks some months back, but, for me, it's new and newsworthy. Some of the names on here are famous in technology circles. Plus, taken in toto, the list speaks volumes about how many influential folks have seen and been impressed by Mr. Sprague's vision. Whether these folks are still investors, IMHO, is hardly the point. Here's the list: Michael Von Clemm, Former Head of Merrill Lynch George Montgomery, Head of Hambricht and Quist, NY Stanislas Yassukovich, Vice Chairman, London Stock Exchange Philippe Von Stuffenberg, Warburg Pincus Harold Wilmending, Senior VP, U.S. Trust Company Philippe Bertin, Financier Wagram Poncelet, French Investment Group John Bagaley, Managing Director, Boston University Community Technology Fund Yuval Birin, Former Partner, Adler & Co Butler, Chapman, NY Investment Bankers Donald Weeden, Weeden & Co. Kevin Kimberlin, Spencer Trask & Co. Dr. Colin Bell, Former Head AT7T England, GEISCO Europe Edward Borwinick, Founder, Timeplex, Former Senior VP Unisys Networks Dr. Herman Hauser, Founder, Acorn Company, Co-Chairman, EO Computer Ltd. Michael Seedman, Former Presdient, Practical Peripherals Timothy Slater, President, Computrak Graham Sherren, Founder & CEO, Centaur Communications Sir Patrick Sargeant, Chairman, Associated Newspapers, London Dr. Kenneth Warren, Macmillan Publishing, Rockefeller Foundation Prof. Nicholas Negroponte, MIT Media Lab Dr. Jerry Eskin, Founder, Information Resources, Inc. Peter Rosenwald, Former Head, Saatchi and Saatchi, Japan Robert Leff, Co-chairman, Merisel, Founder, Sofsel George Conrades, former Senior VP and general manager of IBM United States William McKnight, EVP, Nabisco Foods Group John E. McConnaughy, Jr., Former Chairman and CEO, GEO International Corp. Dr. Wesley Howe, Former Chairman, Becten Dickenson Seymour Schweber, Chairman, Seymour Electronics Gene Ray, President and CEO, Titan Corp.

Having The Attention Span Of A Fruit Fly On Crack... I may have missed this being posted by someone or several someones. (Given the fever pitch of the RB thread, it is more than likely that this article has been parsed, dissected, and made the subject of several treatises by hermeneutics scholars on three continents, including a line by line analysis discovering that when you collect all the inital capitalized letters and scramble them up you get the sentence, "I did not have sex with that... woman... Ms. Nijinski" eerily to close to a now infamous quote.) At any rate, it ain't about WAVX in a direct way. It's a 3/8 Computerworld article about online credit card fraud stinging e-merchants. It's a good read. Here's the link... idg.net If that link doesn't work, I'm sure the article is available by doing a search at Computerworld. Best Regards, c m
