More from Yahoo board: More Conference Update................. by: StockBrahmin (28/M) 953 of 953 The following are answers to your questions: a) The message that I wrote was my opinion and since I am not as big as an analyst as some people on this board are you can't find the text. But to see the validity of the conference go to siliconalley.org b) The make up of the audience varied from the Dean of NYU Business school who was there to see how the internet convergence product can be used to provide a more interactive teaching environment, Executives from the Weather channel trying to see how HyperTV can help them increase revenues, to People from Media companies that might be interested in taking equity stake, Analysts, and finally a lot of Venture Capital companies. c) This was not a conference for wall street per say but basically a play by WGAT to get in front of the audience it is targeting for revenues and show them data that gets them excited about WGAT. The one thing that excited me the most was the comment by Gerard Kunkel that he is very aggresively pursuing media companies to take equity stake in WGAT. If that happens I will see all the longs in Hawaii!!! Good Investing!!! Stock Pundit

I've seen where WINK has pulled their IPO. IMO WGAT should buy them out. This would create a logical interpretation of how the interactive world will be. By creating a company that controls a major thrust in accessability (WGAT) and interactivity ( WINK), a combination will create more value as a team, than individually. They are both going after the same customers with complimentary products that interact with each others' product. A merger would create extreme value in this new evolution of the digital TV. All IMO
