All this info is overwhelming to make sense of IMO. A lot of time to sort thru things might help and I am grateful to this board for all the offerings of ideas and links. ( I got caught up on the link to the apple article. ) I was checking my notes and saw the stuff on digEplayers on trains and thought about the player on how many airlines is it now? So much potential and we wait and wait. ( five years for some of us... I called a friend to wish him happy birthday on the 16th. He was the one that told me about EDIG some five years ago and now he is collecting SS!!!! ) I am looking forward to the meeting in Aug. and wish that all of us who post here could be there and have a meaningful conversation with management. 13% of shareholders should have some influence even if we don`t have control. I personally feel that the stock increase is a disappointing predicament unless it can be regulated and explained. Yet this time with Atul running things I feel more confident than in the past. I have been way too busy these last weeks to focus on most of this, though I did bump into someone that knows Atul and they had glowing things to say about him. ( hey, that was confirmation of my experience at the previous meeting ). So at least we have that going for us. Could the share increase be to prevent a takeover? To allow a takeover or partnership? For better salaries and interest? And who owns the other 77% and which way are they voting? Does EDIG management really need to be so nice and persuasive in asking us to vote yes to more shares unless some of the big holders are going to vote no? Could the ballotting be that close? It is all very complex ( probably to those in the know as well because it keeps changing so fast and the players keep jocking for position, like a horse race ) I guess I will continue to wait like many others and do some Edigging when possible. Thanks to all for the posts which I read and ponder, until the 4th, ciao.
