So your opinion is like mine: IATV is the CSCO of its industry!

The name of the game in this market is "name brand" - it is all about the name - @Home, AT&T, RealNetworks etc. We are not getting the recognition because our name is not being thrown around in ANY of these articles about cable Internet/TV convergence. Don't get me wrong - I am long on this stock and I will not give up on it, but NONE of these articles about interactive TV mention ACTV, and therefore, do nothing for the stock. I have no doubt that ACTV will do excellent in the long term, but without the recognition for it's contributions to the (convergence) market, we share-holders will not see the rewards that we believe are due. I am afraid that it will take posted, positive earnings numbers or a major alliance/merger to get this stock off the ground again. I am bullish, but we will just have to wait. We are behind this convergence curtain and that will not change until we make our next major move i.e. merge, alli, report positive earnings. I am a little tired of seeing these articles about convergence with no mention of ACTV. The articles mean nothing to potential investors without the label ACTV. Please screen your information carefully. tom
