WOW .. there is even a transcript of the actual interview on the site! I will not post it here just because the actual content is lengthy and I for one do not really like scrolling for a few minutes.
But do check the site out and scroll down if the audio does not work for some people.

Comcast have been running ads regarding QTV on their information channel in the Sacramento CA area for the past 3 days. They give a preview of the content but only say "Coming Soon" and for more ordering information please call Comcast. Sounds like its going to launch soon

Doctoall, do you mean on the "What's On" channel, which has the TV Guide scrolling on the bottom half and the coming attractions promos on the top half? I'm in Berkeley/Oakland and it is on channel 11 on Comcast here. Is this the same as up in Sacramento?

Anyone else having a problem gettiing to the Q website? I went out shopping and it was a boring end to a boring day. I come home a few hours later and all heck's broken loose and the website has disappeared (from MY computer, anyway).
Is it just over it's bandwith or something?
Anyone know? I'll try to tape the Comcast promo if it is running in my area and post it somewhere for all. I'm running the What's On channel till I fall asleep. Maybe I'll get lucky.

i don't understand folks that don't like that they hired this guy. The person has to be a little weird to head a gay cable station. I think they picked the right guy for the job and they needed someone that could make some noise for them. It was a great pick for their personel. You can count the days you have left to buy under .02

I agree , They obviously did not fully investigate this Guy before they hired him. Or did they? Without the information everyone has been waiting for we are in for another day where a PR will put us into the negative.

I picked up $8,000 300,000 more shares yesterday before the run this week. I have a feeling this guy is already working for them and signing up deals. So I have narrowed my portfolio to 2 stocks, this and cmkx. I have broken every rule but this will be an exciting new month for both.

3rd quarter starts July 1st. I know there was discussion about July 1st a while back, but I don't recall if it was in an actual PR with that specific date, or it was just July 04 (I think it's 'sometime' in July, officially)

Better be real soon today...this PR makes it sound like they are still working on finalizing carrier contracts. I'm assuming those would be carriers in addition to the ones we have now...but we REALLY need a PR stating the confirmed carriers.

LOL. A Start up company's plans can change very quickly and often. Promises are easier to forget then to say " We can't deliver that promise" Steps taken to become successful can be accounted for and looked at as progress. As long as they are moving forward, I could care less what they said 1 week ago.
I say things everyday that I don't end up doing.

I'm sorry but you can't be making promises that you won't keep when you have people like us investing thousands of dollars!lol

and they can't just ignore what they stated last week either. They need to keep us informed. But I still think there will be a joint press release soon (hopefully today), sounds like you guys are doubting that now.

Another fluff PR. I agree, today is red. They have been promising this carrier PR and then they give you a PR about a guy who has been accused of securities fraud regarding a childrens network. There going to be a lot of dissapointe dpeople about that PR. Oh, well, today can be another good swing opportunity.

Problem is, I'm not invested in you... I'd rather them issue fewer PR's with substance than empty promises

I don't see QBID launching July 1st. That is this Thursday. I see the end of July beging of August. That is not a bad thing. The PR that came out stated that they are still working on getting things all finalized. I don't see it happening in 2 days on July 1st.
Launching in mid-late July or early August is a good thing. That means they are doing things the right way and organized. Looks like they signed with COMCAST which is a great thing. My friend has comcast and he saw QTV coming soon. This is good for QBID

Anyone else having flashbacks of when it was .0036, then dropped down to .0027 & everyone wondered if it would go back to .0001? Then SURPRISE we closed at .0095 that week.
