Same to you Max.
Deshulme interesting post.However, to say that the technology for videophones has flopped seems very premature to me;there has'nt even been any mass promotion yet;also for mass take up many will not want computerised 'hobbyist'arrangements (though as you know MMD can satisfy that need as well). Simplicity and practicality of instant communication is the nub of the matter.
By the way have you bought these shares recently? - if you are the same Deshulme who used to post on iii, I used to find your posts informative.
