Dwight-

I think this is FINALLY some news of substanance. TEETH in this one.

Hope the market agrees...I think we go up from here.

BTW...note the normal disclosure in the PR of yesterday. DO you notice that PORTICO is further shoved in the midst of a more global "internet" type of biz description.

I beleive Markman et al are now focusing on being an internet stock and that illustrious "voice portal" some guy named SKIDIVER used to rant about months ago.

He may be right!

LOL all longs.

Thanks for the post. I like this Markman quote the best -

" We also expect other parties will be interested in working with us to deploy the technology on the Web. That's why our agent experts have developed a Kenya scripting tool, based on the XML standard, that we believe will make it easy for partners to create new applications or customize existing ones to exploit voice agent technology"

Kenya's applications, IMO, will be very big for General Magic and the rest of us that will use it. Markman didn't mention how revenues will be generated through this product but I'm sure (from the above quote) it is in the works.
