<<If I were crazy enough to be long on DCHT, I would also make sure to be long on XYBR.>> I looked at xybr last winter before I'd heard of DCHT. It is in an industry- wearable computing- that is expected by many to grow leaps and bounds in the near future. XYBR has been recommended by at least one independent analyst. I trust you've been through all the arguments concerning the future of wearable computers, and don't really think they have one? Well, if there is a decent future for the wearable computing industry, XYBR may well be a great pick as it is an early leading player holding patents in the field. With nothing original to say about the company, I really don't have a clue why you'd form that opinion, do you? What, you dont' believe they will do 40 million in revenues this year? Maybe no outside Wall Street sources actually projected 40mil? Maybe they shouldn't say they think they will actually meet that estimate? Whatever, Francois, next thing I know you'll be calling investment in Lockheed/martin crazy too- and NASA's space program a sham lie. Edward G. Newman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Xybernaut Corporation, stated: "The report by Gartner Group, one of the world's most esteemed research organizations, is most gratifying to Xybernaut®, the world leader in wearable computers. It is an affirmation of what Xybernaut believes in very strongly-that wearable computers will become mainstream in business applications and ultimately for the general consumer market. Xybernaut's firm belief in this is backed by its own impressive researchers and scientific advisors out of such prestigious organizations as Xerox, Sony, IBM, GE Capital-Spacenet Division, the Defense Department , and others." The Gartner Group report, released on January 20, states: "Wearable Computers - A belt-mounted computer with a wrist-worn keyboard or a micro phone to input voice commands, and a head-mounted display that covers one eye. Wearable computers will be monitored closely by the manufacturing industry in the next two years, according to Gartner Group forecasts, and then find utility in a number of other industries thereafter." "The references made by the Gartner Group in its description of wearable computers actually describe the physical attributes of the Xybernaut system which are covered by an extensive patent and intellectual property portfolio which we possess," said Mr. Newman. wearablecomputing.com More info. on wearables here:mediaeater.com
