Well done PM you've got a letter published in Shares.
Can't see any other mention of Yoo in the mag though maybe they're happier sitting on the fence for the time being (can't blame them. . .)

RD Hi,
Thamks :)
A letter ?
I didn't write thinking they would print it, so I am wondering if it is my letter, or someone else's ?
Cheers,

For the record here is PM's forecast
I think a short-term target of
6p to 7p is easily achievable, and
maybe as much as 20p by
Christmas. The shares are
currently sitting at 4p.

Now up 0.62p on the day, I am certain we will get an RNS soon
Firstly, we should get an RNS this week, maybe today, of just how much the directors HAVE topped up, also, who the other big buyer ( buyer's ???) are.
More importantly, my guess is we will get some positive news regarding the new YES group formed within YOOMEDIA this week, they would not have have separated it out, and made such a big thing with it, dedicating nearly 50 staff to it, if something was not amiss.
To reiterate one of my earlier posts, I have seen first hand what YES is capable of, and one of my new business ventures will be utlising one of the fast growing services that this division can offer, SMS text reverse auctions, already this is a fast growing area being utilised by many of the premiership football clubs ( not using Yoomedia though ), also, you may have seen many of them pop in daily newspapers.
When you see how quickly eBay has grown using a traditional auction method, reverse auctions where the lowest bidder wins, is fast catching on, Yoomedia's advantage is that they have a broadcast stream, and could make a very interesting TV programme out of reverse auctions.
Time will tell, but even without dating, gambling etc, the one division that is going to carry YOOMEDIA through into a very profitable business is the YES division, especially as it has major clients such as BBC, ITV, CELADOR queueing up to use its patented technology to enable SMS interaction during a live broadcast stream, the other reason why broadcasters like this method of interaction, is that it is cheaper than red button services, and also, the 40 % of people who do not have DTV can still take part in an interactive programme.
3-5 years time, if you can lock your money way, will reap nice rewards, if you can't lock it away for that long, then youn could get burnt fingers if you have to sell at times like we see now, I am sure whilst this share rides upwards, we will see dips at certain points, but they will get less, as the nation really does realise what DTV is all about, and that is exactly why this share suffers like it does, because not enough people know about the big change that is happening to the TV lanscape, just ask most of your friends, ask business people, they simply do not know enough about it, the good thing is the likes of Dr Sinclair do, as does Peter Wilkinson - check out their track record, they are very rich people, and they both got their by being very shrewd, and one step ahead of the crowd - I certainly put more faith in those two people, than anyone on any BB that posts information with no substance - as always, DYOR there are plenty of places to find out information, especially www.dtg.org.uk, I would certainly recommend a subscription to Broadcast magazine, the magazine that the industry takes, and most importantly, go out of your way to make some friends within BBC and ITV, that will be as good as getting inside information.
Heres to the rollercoaster ride that we will see over the next 3-5 years, if you can keep your nerve through times like the last few months.
Regards
Paul

I bought these on Monday at 3.75p so feeling pleased now, I was nearly taken in reading all the bad comments on this thread but realised they were shorters, otherwise why bother. Well glad to see your predictions coming good PM. I can't say that i'm in for the long term though, maybe out at 6.
