Well since I've never seen 'ridulous hype' here, I'll take your word it's not good. There has been some ridiculous hype however (sarcasm intended) and I ignore it as most sensible investors should.

As far as your friend buying 1 million shares because he thought Samsung was going to purchase EDIG, that was strictly on him/her. Anyone that would spend that kind of money based on pure speculation received from an Internet investment forum with no basis in fact, deserves to get a heavy dose of in-your-face reality IMO.

Peace.
