I'm a shareholder and I'm not wiped out .

[isis] 18/10/2010 09:35

Sour Grapes? LOL

Shareholders have been wiped out effectively - not me.

They are either complete idiots or have more money than the Queen.

[substp] 18/10/2010 09:33

isis ......very sour grapes or alterior motives ....... but some of us are willing to see if there will be a turnaround ...... :-)

[isis] 18/10/2010 09:31

Probably the first of many cash calls. Leopards don't change their spots.

Lisa - despite repetitiveness, I have enjoyed reading your learned, sharp and informative analysis, both here and on TMF.
logic says past is not necessary an indication of the future, especially with different factors in play ( new management, cash rich, new products, new biz plan)

I was fortunate not to buy prior to the RNS, 3.64p the highest I paid, I have taken inconsideration all the negatives (to say the least) suffered by the pi in the yesteryears and have come to a conclusion this should be a turning point to the good. dyor

28/06/2010 07:26 RNSNON NXT technology for netbooks and notebooks

NXT plc, a provider of unique sound solutions, best known for its flat panel
loudspeaker and touch screen technologies, announces that 3M Touch Systems has
developed Dispersive Signal Technology (DST) for use in Quanta Computer's
notebook and netbook touch screen platforms. DST is a unique touch screen
technology invented by NXT based on its expertise in bending wave physics, and
is licensed exclusively to 3M Innovative Properties Co. DST is currently in
commercial production with 3M Touch Systems. For more information on the
technology, visit www.3m.com/touch. NXT expects to receive royalty income from the agreement.

DST also has an ability to detect both stylus and finger inputs with high precision, and allows for slimmer tablets than other optical touch screen technologies. DST-equipped computers are expected to launch by the end of 2010.





"DST does not and will not bring in material monies to NXT and management have stated this now."

Please post links when making statements .......

[isis] 18/10/2010 09:25

There will be vastly more shares in issue and even a 1p rise in the share price will add millions to the mkt cap.
This may have worked in the dotcom era but not now.

[lisa279] 18/10/2010 09:12

substp,

DST does not and will not bring in material monies to NXT and management have stated this now.

Please do not go ramping techs that will do little for NXTs new future.

It was a poor deal done by old management to survive and pay the pension and Directors pay.

NXT have a new management, a new business plan and new techs.They also now have enough cash to act as a strong platform to achieve profitability but will it ever be the huge growth stock and company we once thought?

Not on what we know today....

Dispersive Signal Technology

Indeed, it's a crowded market place and how many people will care for a 20x power usage improvement? Maybe those using laptops but then how many people use external speakers with laptops? Not many. In fact most people use headphones. And nearly all of those people don't care too much about sound quality either. Audiophiles are a dying breed. Teenagers today listen to music on iPods and cheap ear-buds. I have a Creative Zen mp3 player which sounds way better than my kids' ipods but they would never swap.

I do nearly all of my listening to music on ear-buds these days rather than the stack of hi-fi separates I have in the corner with names such as Marantz, Kef and Rotel. Why? Because I can keep it personal so that others in the house can listen to what they want to. And this is how music listening is evolving. Sound quality isn't important to the younger generation (they simply don't care). Nor does power consumption seem to be something the AV industry is looking to conquer - just look at TVs today, very few have power on/off buttons. We have 3 new TVs in our house that are permanently in standby mode unless you switch them off at the wall because they are missing a power switch. It defies belief but that is what is being produced these days.

who knows what might come out of it ......

[rejawna] 18/10/2010 08:11

every little helps, USB Speakers, 3M and hopefully more things to come.

[substp] 18/10/2010 08:06

I do not believe that USB speakers will ever be their future .

I don't know enough about NTX to compare. My interest in NTX is in a possible bombed out stock with strong speculative potential. My interest in TRT is in the very large chunk of money I have poured into it, plus the strong speculative potential. :-O

Good news that the open offer shares were all taken up.

[substp] 18/10/2010 07:27

Who can tell me what the royalties will be on each unit please ?

Please point me to a link .

[substp] 18/10/2010 07:26

Let's not forget ...... DST is in the hands of 3m and not NXT management and 3m appear to have step up a pace with that conglomerate Quanta .... :-)

[donalc] 18/10/2010 07:24

Subs

Wherever the profits are going to come it is not from 3M. The royalties are going to be negligible even on high volumes. They sold part of silverware to survive a while back.

[substp] 18/10/2010 07:23

I understand the management weren't at their best . But to raise this much money means that there is still something there or they wouldn't have got so much support .

[isis] 18/10/2010 07:20

That's why people lost their money on this before because of unsubstantiated claims of market share and sales that never materialised. Every time a new product came out like the iPod, Flat TV's etc. the nutters all started claiming NXT were World Leaders of this, that and the other.

All Bolox.

[substp] 18/10/2010 07:16

They have the full raising for a start . I am a fortunate one as I didn't start buying in until it hit the bottom .

I'm putting my money on the royalties coming in from 3m when Quanta starts releasing its new products at this year end . The potential could be staggering considering the size of Quanta.

[isis] 18/10/2010 07:08

substp - so just how does that help NXT?

you might as well put 'it's Windy out'.
