>>But put me down as surprised by the revenue figure, in any case Management, Management, Management. If you check out the new management over the last year or so this should come as no surprise. And I would venture that you might be surprised once again.

>> But put me down as surprised by the revenue figure, in any case. << Put me down as surprised, too. The price of the stock reflects the earning's potential of Talk-n-Play. This stock explodes because it get's on CNBC to talk about a new internet product and people think it's an internet play. But really what's the potential to talk-n-play? Most kids don't have a lot of band width. If you slow down your connection with bi-directional voice communication, how badly will that bog down the game play? If the product does work, what stops fifteen other company's from doing knock-offs? It's a straight forward program to write and could be based on existing internet telephone protocols. If a shareware version comes out, are people really going to want to pay for it? Gamers can be increadibly cheap. - Chris
