YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT HISTORY BEING MADE: WE ARE IN THE MIDEST OF A "BACK TO THE FUTURE" SHIFT IN THE TECH INDUSTRY.
EDIG may be an unknown to stock market traders and analysts. However, the BIGGEES of the Tech Industry like MSFT, INTEL, HPQ, NOKIA, etc. certainly know a lot about it as far back as CES 2000 that I know about...
The significance of your last few posts is in the fact that they reflect a shift in the Industry leaders mind set of how they do business, away Michael Milkin's guiding principle of "STEAL BIG, AMASS GREAT WEALTH, AND HAVE A BIG STASH TO BUY YOUR WAY OUT IF YOU GET CAUGHT", back to the basic method OF COOPERTION that gave us Silicon Valley as the dominant force in modern world economics, which was established by the likes of Moore, Packard, Hewlet, Gates and others who orginated the concept of growing their business and the Tech Revolution through synergistic cooperation.
As we saw, when APLL was run into the ground and they begged Jobs to come back and help revive it, it was Gates who loaned JOBS $150 Million to resussitate APPL. This was good business for GATES who was the dominant software company and needed another software maker like AAPL to exist in order defelct Antitrust law suit on a worl wide scale.
EDIG'S problem has always been that it hit the scene at the hight of Tech revolution in late 1990's. Its Business Plan was modled like that of Qualcom aiming to grow the company synergistically. That is why you had 3 INTC VPS on it Board, and CES 2000 was all about future of Tech growth in digital date transmission through FALSH utilization. All of which led to a a $ 24.50 pps for this dinky company in southern Californis with nothing to its name.
Then we had the TECH BUBBLE BURST OF March of 2000, and everyman for himself policy took over in the tech industry...
10 years later and EDIG not only survived but is on the threshold of becoming a player again in an era that FALSH is the dominant force driving the Tech industry. The success of DM thus far has certainly had an impact on these developing events. However, I am convinced that we are witnessing another tectonic shift in the Board rooms of the Giants of Industry back to the "Old ways" of doing business, SYNERGISTICALLY...
I can see Bill Gates after reading of the results of the LAW SUIT BY VHC calls his wall street lawyer DAD who helped build the MSFT Empire seeking his advice as follows:
BILL: Dad what should we do?
DAD: Pay the damn thing and scuttle the NEWS. Every minute that it continues in the headlines and some one hears or listens to this you loose another prospective customer for WINDOWS 7, and they buy FIREFOX from ANDREESON's ORACLE. Call a meeting of every big shot running MSFT now in your SITUATION ROOM at your $10 Million dollar House in the foothills of Seatle, and I will be there with you to make everyone understand that the current policy if stealing others Tech is BAD for the Company and costs more that it is worth. Heck, you could have bought VHC for $200 Million if they were approched before you used their tech...
Well, you can immagine the meeting at Bill's house for yourself...Lol...Lol...
The "Elements" company is talking about are converging. Within 3 months we shall have our answers. If NOKIA settles before the Markman Hearing it would reflect that the SHIFT outlined above is taking hold industry wide. And if we see some licensing fees from Microsoft for using EDIG tech in their new Phone, we have a confirmation that EDIG has arrived at the "BACK TO THE FUTURE" point in its developing its Business Plan. The end of this Journey is near, one way or another. We shall see the whites of their eyes 30 days after the Markman Hearing is held...
