Now time to play Guess that Spin!

Winners will get my copy of Talk N' Play! (I'm keeping the Won.net disk though - more valuable.)

So, given the obvious state of their Internet gambit (as big a disappointment as TMSR attempt to enter the console world very successfully), what is the guess for the upcoming press release and spin?

Here's my conjecture(s):
1. They managed to get an actual OEM deal for the product - will tout that.
2. Will ignore all failures to this point and keep babbling about the size of the internet market and it's growth rate, as if they had any part in it.
3. Focus entirely on eConference, as it hasn't had a chance to fail miserably yet.
4. Pull out another slap happy copy app for wecantalk.com that won't sell either.
5. Talk about "validation" and "diffusion tactics" - anything but hard sales figures.

Will they be honest to the stockholders and say, "Talk N' Play" isn't doing diddly in sales and the same old thing they have always sold (wheels and sticks) are the only things really selling? Nah...

Show me those margins, baby!!!
