    << FYI - I spoke with a prospect here in Florida this morning who earlier
    this week witnessed a Sequioa demo on their touchscreen unit, the EDGE.  Her
    comments included:

     Current 10" screen, black/white sells for 3,300.00 and none of the directors
    in attendance like the small screen.  A 15" color screen is in development
    and scheduled for certification this spring, estimated cost of 3,800.00

     She really liked the all-in-one carrycase with booth, privacy screen and
    legs.
     The unit comes standard with a 2hr. battery. A second battery can be
    purchased for extended battery operation. And, a 16 hour battery is available
    for an additional charge. Similarly, a modem is an additional charge. >>

    Knecht - that is a much stronger combination of product features than we've
    got on the books at a significantly reduced cost.  The combined booth feature
    is significant.  Are they using flat panel? How are they accomplishing this?
    Battery option seems significant as does screen size.  Pricing seems to be
    what market is expecting as well, whereas our pricing is (whatever it is -
    $5,000?).

    My feeling is that as soon as someone else has a color 15" screen, our big
    advantage will go away.  It will be the same as when the first "windows"
    voter registration system came along, everyone thought it was the best.  Now
    everyone's voter registration is windows based and its much more difficult
    for customers to see the real differences.  If someone comes along in the
    near future with 15" color, and has battery, and has integrated case for
    polling booth at $3,800, and our product is as it is today, we are history.
