Q: WIN re: paul's inquiry

with respect to all concerned; if you want a full service broker, the phone book is full of them

I am of the understanding that this (5I) is a full service RESEARCH service, where peter and team provide research on a myriad of companies on a "best efforts" basis

that you chose to buy wilan today is unfortunate and seen in isolation is disappointing, yet in the context of holding 16 - 22 individual companies in a well balanced portfolio should hardly be catastrophic

a 35% loss on a 5% portfolio weighting is about 1.6% overall loss to the portfolio

there should be no surprise to anyone of today's action, especially someone who has risked their hard earned capital

along with this service, one must take on personal responsibility to do further due diligence

Q: Hi; Well Wi-Lan was really hit badly today as you know. The news in all aspects was scary. Yet this company has some fundamentals that if viewed independently of the news must have some value. How would you folks WIN purely from a fundamental view?

Q: I bought Wi-LAN this afternoon, about an hour before trading was stopped for the negative litigation news. HUGE MISTAKE.... talk about bad timing... and an instant loss of nearly $4,000. However, I purchased the stock on your fairly strong recommendations. After all, you gave it an A- rating. You answered a previous question on this stock with the response that "investors have loved to hate this company". Would it not have been more prudent to have stressed the considerable risks in your earlier opinion pieces? Were you aware that litigation was "in process"?
