Slidog, a very big welcome to you!

It is nice to get someone who knows what they are talking about here because as I have stated, this is not my area of expertise. The patent issue is an interesting one and one I will bring up with management next time I talk to them as this is a very big deal. However, from my understanding the important patents are the ones that deal with the heptoport and the IMT connectors.

Those products are the ones that, from my understanding that have legal patents, registered with the company with about 15 years left of patent protection. The other slate of products that you pointed out have no big bang to them except that they served to keep the company afloat during the last few years and kept us from dilution or even worse, bankruptcy. They are all average products that have a market and bring in some revenue until our innovative products have a chance to make something happen.

Lockheed Martin and Kaiser are both advanced companies who have publicly stated that these Impact Mounted connectors are a better mouse trap for their needs. These needs are niche needs and are not a treat to Corning or 3M in the connector market in general. We will need to see some sales figures/contracts before being certain about the long term prospects of this company. However, by then the share price will be higher. I have made an initial investment here, a fairly sizable one to be honest but I will increase this investment as I see sales increasing. From what I am hearing, many clients are looking at our products, some have made purchases already, some are evaluating the products (the IMT connectors specifically are getting alot of attention but the HeptoPort is getting some traction in refitting existing buildings with fiber optic because of it's small size). At this point with the company, it is a question of sales and as sales come in, the potential will be more real and I expect the share price to tract sales.

Please keep looking into this, especially the IMT connectors and the HeptoPort as I would love your feedback on these specific products and the patents that back them up.
