"Not even going to dignify it with a reply."
That speaks volumes, thanks. You are basically saying no else you would have come outright and said yes.
IMHO if anybody can't answer yes to my question then you are speculating, not investing and therefore you should scale your approach in line with that. Lets put things into perspective for everybody on here.
If I had 10 for every wonderful idea and product put forward by technology companies I'd be the richest man in the world. If I had invested 10 in each I'd probably be the poorest.
YOO doesn't have anything particulary innovative, that can't be copied that can't be done without. That couldn't be overhauled by a competitor or copied if it really is profitable. They haven't done a particular good job so far at convert ideas to money, I expect that to continue. At best a very very very high risk speculation.

Don't be silly.
I'm an ordinary bloke. If I had 40m, I'd sit on a beach and surround myself with women. I invest to (the dream) make a huge lump sum. We all do.
However, if I were a large media player, yes, I'd be very interested, if it fitted into my business plan. Why not?
Still say it was a stupid question.
Well done for spotting 8 out of 10 new technology companies fail. This is AIM you know. If YOO is the one to succeed, I'll be rich, if not then I lose. But I already know that. I don't need you to tell me!
So you don't believe YOO will reach cash flow postive next quarter, even though the HIll's contract is on much better terms and other organic revenue kicks in next year + chance of new contracts - NTL?
Well that's your perogative. Let's see who is right!

The only the reason the contract was renegociated was because YOO said they would go bust if it was not put back on the table again. Anybody can see that.

"Well that's your perogative. Let's see who is right!"
That's funny, I don't need to wait I have been calling each profit warning on the way down and right back from when they had plenty of funding. It's alwasy been a rotten business through and through. Despite much opposition I have saved people a fortune so far.
I don't think it's me that has anything to prove but at least readers of this thread have a more balanced opinion now.

Not making money is not the same as losing 90% of your pot which is what would have happened if people had followed the hopeless optimism on this thread so far. I'd say I have done a pretty good job and have nothing to prove. People have a much more balanced opinion now.
Feel free to post up your forecast of their next results, what cash flow, what profits they have and how much cash they have left and give people something to go on IPublic then maybe I'll believe your hype.
If YOO can squeak out of the hole they have dug and start getting some cash into the business then if you are a complete speculator it would be an interesting punt. As it is they are still periously close to runing out of cash and speculators will lose all their money if they run out of cash.

iPublic,
Don't you think it's about time you came clean on why you are so positive about YOO's prospects?

Interesting read -> http://indiamonitor.com/news/readNews.jsp?ni=9496
(not related to the above link)
Having been involved with YOO for some time and reading the various views on this forum, I am still positive about YOO in all honesty. But then I don't have a substantial interest in this one, that I can't afford to lose.

The RNS clearly states how the cash position will be addressed. It's obvious you do not believe the company statement. The current price reflects the uncertainty.
Feel free to buy at 20p+ next year.
