Thank you Mark. I do appreciate your words of
caution which come from personal experience.
WAL's half-year report and announcements
deliver 'actual' results, not promises.
WAL states ' ... Wavenet expects to see more groups
making decisions to move from trials to mass deployments over the next few
months. ... '
WAL's profile is now highly compelling from an FA
perspective and will have a lot of appeal to FA investors in for longer
terms.
This company has a very different profile
today than the one you originally invested in.
From my perspective; WAL is a definite
keeper.
Regards, Cris

Wavenet UPDATE
A
great day - up 25% so far.
mmm. Be careful of WAL
Cristine. I invested in this one as a start up (about four years ago give or
take a year). Lost a big percentage. Partly because of the tech wreck, but
partly because I got pulled into all the academic research and funding behind
the venture which made it seem better than the run of the mill tech start up
in those days. Where I really lost out was everytime I got to the stage of
thinking I'll cut my losses and run they'd come up with an announcement
promising some new piece of equipment, sales market, etc, which never
ultimately panned out. So I stayed in way too long before jumping.
Just
my 2 cents worth :)
