Pipick,

I was just curious if whether or not you still own TVL shares?
I share in your frustrations but regardless will continue to hold.

I am not banking solely on mandates and legislations, but rather on a market that will develop and expand based on the need for such a chip.
I must admit that management for Tri-vision has been less than sterling and seem to mislead their investors or in the very least remain ambiguous in their progress reports.
Isn't it ironic that they should halt trading to announce that no news is to be announced?
You have to admit, this is a volatile stock that is hard to walk away from entirely though.

Sincerely,

Blair

As of two years ago when I was buying TVs for a living they were certainly being made in both Canada and the USA

One other innacuracy in his comments, to my knowledge there are NO TV's that are manufactured in the USA anymore,

TCE - Thomson Consumer Electronics who have the RCA and GE brand names for consumer electronics were manufacturing at keast the 27" TVs in North America. And it was more than just assembly - Granted many of the parts were asian.

having said all that I thionk one of the plants may have been shut since I was in the biz
