Thanks Chem,

If anything comes from it, any involvement with Japan would be very welcome as they seem to know what they want.
Please promise me, if we are having a similar conversation next January...you are free to get the spade out of my garden shed and knock some sense into me......I really don't know what keep people returning here....considering the track record....I guess its the very long pipeline..:)

I agree Tony. Immigration is not clean cut but the way the media manage it, and the timing of its coverage appears very manipulative to me.

Off out on a pub crawl ending somewhere near The Embankment....if we're lucky should see four ton of fireworks go off.

Happy NewYear Tony and to you All. Vas

What I find Absolutely amazing is that the British media have left the daily images of migrants arriving in dingy etc etc alone for over two years ( since the referendum) ....and now, just last week the media have decided to re visit the subject of immigration and make it a daily topic again on the news. If you think back to the referendum over two years ago...the news and media did very little else than show images of immigrants arriving on the shores of Italy, Greece, and in Calais etc etc before and during the referendum....scaring certain voters into thinking they were being invaded ....and what happened immediately after the referendum result... immigration was very conveniently dropped in the media........until now, that is....the media are needed again to fullfil a critical role.......and I'm thinking that the steady drip feeding of anti immigration rhetoric and images ( which will build up in coming months) is to again re awaken those anti immigration feelings in certain groups of people in the UK....just in case of a second referendum...which is looking more likely than a few months .....but yes,this subject is best left alone lol.

Its not all bad news though as on 4th Jan 2018 an update informed us we had $100 million in orders and over $ 300 million of oppurtunitys. .( laid out in a shape of a pipeline) .
I imagine these mystical numbers would have grown over the past 12 months....it will be the smaller numbers that will be important when CC update us all in January.
Where have you been for these past years...we all nod off here regularly ..but not for three years!

Here is the story of ARM since being taken over by SoftBank, which was hailed as a British business success story at the time.....look where ARMs IP is now? And it wasn't stolen! Well, Not in the conventional sense.

Defers deadline for smart meters from 2019 to 2022. This will not not be a surprise to most.

There's only one thing to say to you ALL. And that's Hyvää joulua!

Hi Chem.

Reading this article I really feal I arrived at the 2022 ( 70% of Asia!!) New Year's Eve party about 12 years to early lol.

Hi LT,

This is recent . Telit in Sweden.
If you look at their ecosystem of partners ...I don't recognise any names other than Telefonica and Intel .....so most likely competition.

I notice Telit in a bit of bother in US. Aren't they involved with the cellilar side of things in UK contract

The last one re: city of London is right up CC street......but longer term than even we are used too.

Tony. Same applies here. Can't find a date as on mobile.

Tony. I don't know if this is related to your Telegraph article about private mesh. I haven't read it as no time...But let me know your thoughts.

Evening CB.

I decided ages ago ....to sit this one out, and wait for the often mentioned " deal that would produce revenue in real time, and not a deal with the possibility of a revenue enhancement sometime in an uncertain future." ...and it's saved me a great deal of money...only made money when sp hit 8p and remembered the script....and sold most shortly after......at present IMO we have many, many opportunities, being highlighted in new country's around the world, but for those who have been around for too long time, we know that these opportunitys have never delivered...they may one day, but we do not know this..
The U.K. Rollout looks at present to be the only deal that will contribite to CC bottom line, and that has been delayed for around six months....I noted a feeling of caution from the Finncap note....they had obviously had CC down as a " wait and see" status before disclosing a proper sp forecast,now they know, we may get an update....which concerns me also.
I'm ready, I'm willing , I have the money to invest here, but I want confirmation that CC can win a tender, that will contribute to the bottom line, within a timeline that I would appreciate....I.e within the current financial year ...as otherwise they could promise me the world, but it would be" someday".....it would be meaningless to me.

I

Your welcome LT.

Finncap ...here's the latest!

I wonder what they mean by foreign investment, at bottom of the page.

"CyanConnode transfers its solutions and knowledge into India through its Indian subsidiary, which employs more than twenty people, and provide millions of pounds of Foreign Direct Investment into the country. The company also has manufacturing facilities in India."

Get a mention here

We may have more luck under the Smart City side of the business. I read this a way back and haven't found any further info but Chennao Smart City looks a good start.

Hi Pedro. Do you ( or anyone) know of any competition for CC in China relating to RF mesh for electricity meters?
Semtech are well established, but in the Gas and Water meter market, or so it seems.

Anyone know of direct competition to CC in China for electricity meters.
