David, Two years ago it was a promising company. They had two areas they were developing (picture print and 'jukebox') and at that time both looked good. They were each somewhat breaking applications of new technologies. At $2.72 (my entry point) the stock looked like a good speculative buy. I wasn't suprised by the drift downwards some months later and hadn't had enough exposure to the lack of reporting and information, so I averaged down. Then it became apparent that there were rifts inside the organization and that things were not happening. It was now so cheap that it was silly not to average down again. So I did. That was a little less than a year ago. Since then I've been asking myself, "Wolf, why did you get into XVN?" Its years later and the 'jukebox' is still a good idea. I think the DVDT sales have largely been people familiar with the situation. If the product is successful, I'm hopeful that XVN co-market's it's direct sales with an established distributor. I'm not confident in the business skills of XVN's current management team - yet this is a situation you can reasonably expect to successfully make money from. I believe DVDT may be successful in which case the net worth of XVN skyrockets. Then do the distribution deal and sit back. Two years from now we could be talking dividends. So in rambling conclusion. Given an accepted product, there is plenty of money on the table for XVN and more so for DVDT. I have a question for you. If you were presented with a buy out offer of $.30 per XVN share would you sell? $.40? At $.40 this company can be bought for millions less than currently realizable market value.
