Be careful, I once whistled Dixie twice and ended up in Los Angeles. It must have been that clicking of the heels thing. Did you know that they do not even know the words to Rocky Top out here in LA LA Land?

As for the continuing debate on EDIG`s involvment with the digEsytem, we`ll know the specifics at a much later time. IMO, it is very unlikely EDIG is not at all involved and Frank`s conversation with RP seems to be clear....we don`t know to what degree, if any. What else is new? Since APS and EDIG issued a PR on an embedded system project, I doubt they lied. However, worse things have happed to EDIG (think the ``C`` word as in Collier) and the immediate need is for more digEplayers to be sold to many more airlines -- my guess is Wencor believes the same or they would not have hired sales reps early this year.

Today`s news continues the theme of ``other than IFE`` revs to come. We have all stared in this movie with other EDIG projects and less than positive results. However, IFE (through Wencor) is still the bread and butter revenue producer today. And, unlike the dark and dusty past years, EDIG has a product on the market producing dollars. I don`t see how that can be anything but good news.

Fred, what`s up? Workin` hard? Sold something today? How about yesterday? Our BS detector is on. Inquiring minds want to know.

I could not agree more with Gil, this year`s ASM will be interesting, one way or another. I do not ``expect`` to wear my boots just to walk through BS.

Oh, I wonder if Dixie and Rocky Top are loaded on the digEplayer?
