there's the answer; 130,000 of buys gone through.
Obviously some reason behind that on a lightly traded share

Added Co.Investor page to the header.
Go to the City Capital Analyst note - they give fair value at 77p.
They were too conservative about expectations for interims , they only expected 1.4 to 1.5m revenue, not the 1.8m achieved.
Makes good reading.

Smart fabric firm sees sales turn up
by Alex Mayhew-Smith
Thursday 28 September 2006

Smart fabric company Eleksen has reported an interim operating loss of £2.3m in the firm's maiden results since listing on the AIM stock exchange in May this year.

The firm increased turnover by 622 per cent to £1.8m as its technology is being incorporated into clothing. Over 200,000 units were shipped in the half year to June 30.

"We are investing in people and product development to underpin the group's long term growth. In the immediate future, the sales pipeline for new business remains strong," said Robin Shephard, chief executive at the firm.

Staff numbers at the firm have risen from 21 to 30.

The company's customers include iPod accessory firm Belkin, Marks & Spencer suit provider Bagir and vendors to US retailers. The firm's smart fabric is used as built in control for items such as iPods and mobile phones.

UK's smart fabrics lead

Alliances with major brands are resulting in a sudden wave of new commercially-available wearable electronic products.
Many of them come in response to the continued success of the iPod, and the majority have been developed by UK companies, who can safely claim to be taking a lead in this field.

In addition to the previously-announced iPod business suit for men from Israel-headquartered Bagir, Eleksen's touch-sensitive fabric is being employed in the wireless keyboard just introduced by G-Tech, based in Waltham, Massachusetts, USA, and part of Goodhope Bags.

IT Week - London,UK, 22 Sep

Wearable IT is starting to have an impact in sport and may soon make a significant improvement to the lives of thousands of workers

Belkin Sport Commander. Sure, everyone has an iPod, but pulling it out on the ski slopes, or even in the subway, can be risky. Belkin already has tons of iPod controllers and accessories on the market, but the Sport Commander is the first to use Eleksen's patented electro-fabric technology. Using fabric is a lot more flexible, and comfortable, than hard plastic.

I first saw them on "Click" and almost bought without doing any further research other than looking at their website which is spot on.
Then I started to read about the iPod suit plus the other stuff above and it all sounds really impressive.
