Superscape was founded nearly twenty years ago, and has been dedicated throughout its history to the development of ground-breaking software technology for the creation and delivery of innovative, high quality interactive 3D applications.
Over the years, Superscape has amassed unparalleled expertise and experience in the development of 3D software capable of working within the constraints of limited memory devices, slow processor speeds and strictly controlled file sizes.
Drawing on this knowledge, Superscape has established a world-leading position in the development of industry-standard 3D technology and applications for mobile devices. The company's Swerve technology has been developed specifically for wireless environments in close collaboration with ARM, and comprises a 3D engine (Swerve Client), authoring tools (Swerve Studio) and a broad portfolio of 3D content, with particular emphasis on 3D games. Swerve is being adopted on a global basis by many of the mobile industry's leading players, together with world-renowned content and brand organisations.
Superscape has corporate headquarters in Hook, Hampshire (UK) and San Clemente, California (USA) with regional offices in Tokyo and Sydney. The company is quoted on the London Stock Exchange (LSE: SPS).
Superscape (SPS) has received various tips in the press and by Analysts recently which will certainly give impetous to the share price. Indicators are looking good with the RSI rising off an oversold position and the MACD crossing showing BULLISH signs for the stock.
The mobile gaming market is still in it's infancy but the projected revenue is enormous. Mobile operators are looking at tapping the Gameboy market as they feel that users will not want to carry around a multitude of technology and if they have a mobile phone which can double as a gaming station than people will prefer this option.
People should also look at the recent contracts which SPS have signed for their technology. This is a technology company which could well be a great success in 2004.

The trend is now very bearish even with excellent news... If you are still in profits I would sell and re enter when the trend reverses. If you are not (like me) just hang on, the fundamentals will win eventually. I think as a whole the markets are going thru a corrective time, the DOW and FTSE have to fall between 10% to 15% before the start going up again. The NASDAQ and FTSE Techmark have to go down further more than the fisrt two in the short term. maybe early summer we start to see the indices on a more positive outlook which will help SPS. thanks

I really think this stock is set to rocket it's as if everyone is trying to wait for the lowest share price available before buying into it.Unless people are waiting for a set of results to have more proof it's a good share, as they are in a volatile market.
There is meant to be a set of results out next month but I haven't seen any dates yet.I'm glad I have already got into Superscape shares because I believe these could be the icing on the cake taking into account all the positive news of late.
Does anyone know of a results announcement date?All I received via an email, from the investor relations person was April, but no specific date.

Outstanding news really, just goes to show what a load of clap trap hypocritical fleet street tripe the IC article was, no one will ever use Swerve will they. Now all we have to do is wait for samsung to anoounce the products using swerve and three of the worlds top five are confirmed users, well done IC, got this one slightly wrong eh! Qualcomm have said they have another license on the way, that will undoubtedly use swerve as well, hopefully it will be nokia and the fortune of SPS is in the bag. combined with estimates for mobile gaming revenues in the next few years, the share price will be well into three figures in the medium term. The future looks bright and just part of it will be Orange!

Results are fairly irrelevant although turnover, still very small will be a key. Two major issues are the break even date and licences. Future guidance from the break even date is key, within the next 12 months and SPS believe their revenues will start to ramp up, if it is January then we can expect exponential growth expectations (not that I'm saying it will be achieved). Also agreements, I think everyone has given up nokia but you never know with SPS, far more likely is a further agreement with Intel but we will have to wait and see. Cash burn and reserves are key, if they make it to profitability faster than expected with cash in the bank, the market will be impressed, otherwise its 20p for the next 6 months!

Outstanding, nice to see Nokia are on board, a one way ticket really although it may take a while to get going. If the other deal is with Vodaphone then it's one way traffic in my book. Couldn't find one negative in the whole lot, no doubt IC will. good news is that there shouldn't be any more share issues and they have given a break even date, slightly later than I would have liked but I guess they could be being cautious, investors should read this set of results just to get a grip on the whole thing, they are so positive it's unbelievable!

Interesting company with potential?
I first came across these in 1999, but they have consistently failed to get off the ground. If they ever do, they may fly, but I'll watch and wait until we see some consistent progress. I've been disappointed before.
Best of luck though.
