To "bigtim" wherever you are... A little dongle won't do it. I Love this company because I love its management and the brain power promoting its claim to hardware fame. If you read the information on EMBASSY on the WAVX web site, you'll see our objective is to offer a trusted client architecture to all e-commerce companies to make use of in their security solutions. It is a missing architectural component and it is necessary to enhance all aspects of security. Let me give a couple of examples. You log into EMBASSY and it logs into the Network services. In this way when an employee quits, the MIS department expires their right to log on and the employee has no access after they leave. While they know the password to access the Lap Top they kept, they do not know any of the passwords to the network services because EMBASSY hides it from the user. The same could go for Data Access where the CORP publishes the data securely and gives access only to certain meters if the CIO wants to eliminate the access to that data. These internal security features are not offered by systems made by Checkpoint Software and other Firewall vendors. Contemplate the enormous volume of data - information and entertainment archives - being digitalized for eventual access. Wave Systems EMBASSY is the only multi-channel content distribution system scaleable to large numbers of consumers WHILE avoiding the transaction costs inherent in server based systems. In short, our EMBEDDED APPLICATION SECURTIY SYSTEM is far more full featured at a fraction the cost. We win on the surest basis of economics. A BETTER PRODUCT AT A LOWER COST. This will be a huge consideration to moguls of the music, movie and gaming industries when looking for an encryption distribution system and a client base of millions to whom to download their entertainment as a matter of metered pay-per-play-and-view anything-anytime on demand modern convenience. In general, we are witnessing the start of an industry-wide focus on hardware security in the PC. WAVX is very well positioned in this market with both a technology position and a services business that will run on other companies hardware. With partners like SUN, HP, Snaroff, HAUP, and RSA we have the muscle to get to market and I'm very excited about the possibility of "EMBASSY" soon becoming the most widely recognized name in digital content distribution. Hope this helps, Your friend, Marty
