I have emailed Kendra Van Nostran at Deveney twice in the last month and she hasn't responded. I find that odd. I have emailed her twice in the past and she responded both times within 24 hours. Something's up but I can't put my finger on it. Any thoughts?

actually Pharm if you check the last pr about RCN Kendra name is at the bottom as the one who released it, doesn't mention Deveney by name but does list Kendra.

JMHO, but if I was working as Q's PR firm, I would be frustrated with how they operate. They hire a PR firm to issue PR's and handle publicity, but then sometimes on a whim, Q releases and says their own things like they know better than Devenney on how to generate publicity. If I was Devenney, I would have quite representing Q a while ago. They are hindering Devenneys ability to generate positive results with the half a$$ crap they put out there. This is just my opinion, but I don't think Q and Devenney have, or ever had the relationship we all thought they did.

I ALSO E-MAIL DEVENEY--NO RESPONSE. BEFORE I HAD GOTTEN A RESPONSE. THEY ARE STILL LISTED AS A CLIENT ON DEVENEY CLIENT LIST. I PERSONALLY LIKED THE HOTLINE UPDATES. DEFINITELY CHEAPER WAY TO PUT OUT INFO. I AM SURE PR.'S AT TO EXPENSE ACCOUNT. JMHO

I think taking that hotline away was a huge mistake. With more silence, this thing will only drop. The hotline did not need to be taken away. It was not the hotline that was hurting the PPS, it was the crap that Q put on it. Instead of taking it away, they needed to use it more constructively and just stop putting empty promises on it. I think all those that wanted it gone will be very sorry very soon and wish it was back.

To some degree I agree with you, but when you take the liquidity out of the play (due to some daytrading) we go into the stagnant mode...looses its appeal a bit...not trying to be argumentative, just my angle, that's all.
Today, MTV Networks, owned by media giant Viacom, is in a full-tilt sprint to achieve another landmark: the first 24/7 cable television network in the United States targeted at lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender viewers. Dubbed Logo, the network says it is developing projects with big names such as Cher and Chastity Bono, Alan Cumming and Margaret Cho. But with a scheduled launch date of October 2005, Logo might just get beaten to the punch.

My outlook is optimistic, but I don't think the hotline had as much of an effect on PPS as people here are stating. I'm glad they got rid of it because it caused more rumors and misinformation.

agree with Fafafooey, it was this companies obsession with pleasing the shareholders at every turn that has always bothered me. They should have instead released less fluff and misinformation and concentrated on getting the thing to broadcast and on the road to making money. I have lost alot of confidence in Frank, He had great vision and love for the project, but is he the right guy to get it to where it should be (should already be) guess our pps speaks for it's self

I'm curious. QTN was quick with thier poll. How many folks here actually contacted QTN, and how did you vote? Did you vote to keep or get rid of hotline? Please do not vote here, now. Just post if you contacted them, or not and how you voted. I for one did not contact them.

Man, I'm out for a few hours and return to see 0039. Can't believe we are even seeing THAT again. Frank really needs to get some positive articles out in the media... articles that cover Q like Logo is getting....otherwise Q will appear out of its league...not able to play with the big boys. Really need some help with the pps because this is starting to remind me of CDVJ, which I also own...buying frenzy for a long time, high interest level and then the downturn. .. The Q story is starting to look quite similar. I'm heavily invested in QBID so I hope this is not the case. But, at this point in time, I hope things start to improve.

Hi everyone! Regarding the elimination of the shareholder hotline; let's check our own voting.

Why the freefall? Down to 0034!!
Forgot I had a buy order in at 0036 for 50000...went through...What is going on?
sunny, what's happening is "nothing" like I said before the only news that could save us is big name advertisers or big name carrier (not in bk. ruptcy) although I think the RCN was agood move it wasn't good for pps. I think we will close down again today, maybe in the .0030's

Thanks Sonny--thought something big came out--had to take a child to the doctor...now I'm thinking that I need to go too!!! Hope it closes in the 004's, though. You are definitely right about needing some good advertising information or another cable carrier...SOMETHING!!!

Im glad that damn hotline is gone, Frank is now forced to put out pr's only. And as for that website releasing info on it wont help the pps at all either because the site is not the best. I hope frank's decision to end the hotline will improve his messages in pr's rather than blow smoke up everybodys **s, making our expectations too high. I guess now just like most of the other companys our there, we will wait for more of the real things we find from doing our DD rather than fluffy words on some hotline.
Lets hope we can all catch the broadcast this september, and be proud that Frank after all this time finally put it together!!
