Thursday March 11, 1999 11:36am Eastern Time Opinon Release SOURCE: QuietWon (this is not a company, just an independent individual's research on fundamentals) INTERNET, March 11 /Tokyo Joe's Cafe/ Societe Anonyme/ No Pennies/ -- The following is being issued by QuietWon, NOT a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, just independent researcher. First Virtual (Nasdaq: FVCX - OPINION ) This is solely an opinion. There is no news source, just my opinion. I think this company will do very well, being the leader in video communications re internet. PictureTel, PCTL, buys equipment from FVCX. VTEL, owned in part by Intel, buys equipment from FVCX. FVCX is involved in the interoperability standards announced this week, which I believe will be very significant for FVCX. Lucent, LU, and Nortel, NT, distribute FVCX's products. A while back, FVCX had a deal with LU and on that news FVCX popped a lot. FVCX is in the business market and one day I believe its technology in the personal consumer and small business market. My fingers tired of typing, I can foresee one day rather than all this typing, that we are able to have voice discussions, and SIGHT, which FVCX would naturally, in my opinion be involved in. There is a thread on Silicon Investor which likely will contain more detailed information over time. In the short run, technically the stock could advance to 17 or $18, it may back off. In the longer and long run I do believe the stock will trade much higher. I am recommending for those wanting a longer term (say 3, 6, 9, 12 months) position, that First Virtual may be for you. I currently have a long position in the company and may trade it, ie. shorter term , from time to time. SOURCE: QuietWon Any items not mentioned are purely unintentional.
