Hi Chad - It looks like SUNW set aside a new ".COM" name recently for smartcards called.... " SMARTCARD-FORUM.COM ". It was created April 16, 1999 by SUN MICROSYSTEMS (SCHWEIZ) AG Eschenstrasse 8 DUEBENDORF, 8603 CH Nothing yet on the new Web site but it may be worth watching in the future. smartcard-forum.com (...Welcome -This site is currently under construction. Please check back at a later time....) EKS

Just read an article about wireless down load to update smart cards from banks. As I remember they are using them in France.

Took your hint and looked into Nanopierce NPCT What is there ? From the SEC Form 424 of January 1999 and your post, there are zero operations (10Q $ 138 of revenues! Not ‘000), just an announcement that they engaged a prestigious consultant to figure out what they should do. They have a court fight with the original inventor whose first patent must be 8 or 10 years old by now and not much happened. So, what am I missing ? Did you read the SEC Doc ? To me in Hong Kong It is a miracle that I can check out stuff from here. The disclosure requirements of the United States are unparalleled in the world. It takes time to read but one can investigate before investing. edgar.sec.gov IMHO This Nanopierce outfit is not going to affect SUNW at all. Walter in HK.
