EB Reader,
You might remember the origin of WiFi / Bluetooth and 3G/4G technologies.
Before most history was written on this company, they once were in partnership with a company called IAS communications. They both had jointly worked on antenna products, but IAS took the lead scientist who had just (at that time) built something called the CTHA antenna. CTHA was a novel new antenna technology which was reputed to turn future antenna technologies on its head, changing the world and burying the competition.
After this act, the companies--now wary of the others motivations--decided to split and go their separate ways.
The companies signed an agreement wherein: IASCA was given the green-light to do business with the lucrative Government/Military markets. Leaving the private sector marketplace for Integral and their separate product lines. The arrangement was that their paths were not to cross, and lawsuits would be enforced if they did.
That agreement was made, but as time flowed by, the CTHA was found to be flawed in every sense of the word. Meanwhile, the WiFi market was on the verge of breaching everyone's expectations of the market, and run amok on the world in whole.
IAS, seeing Integral's success wanted a piece of that action. They tried talking at first, but Bill Robinson was having none of that. Then the threats came. Integral ignored them, and pressed on with the next phase of their marketing program for their new Micro-Antenna products.
That was about 5 years ago. Wow, it's hard to believe--that is a long time. 5 or 6 years ago, when Integral, then a small/micro antenna company with a host of good products on hand, was poised to enter and take that--then--niche market by storm.
With the potential for deals in hand, IAS struck.
Shortly before the first deal was signed, IAS issued a lawsuit, claiming that the technology used in Integral's WiFi product was stolen from the CTHA -- Something they new was a blatant untruth.
The court case, which lasted almost 8 months, was resolved in Integral's favor, but WiFi had moved on by then. Were integral to have pushed forward, they would be one among many--with no unique attributes.
Instead--during the legal battle, Integral / Tom Aisenbrey, uncovered the secret to ElectriPlast, and a new corporate path emerged overnight.
That was almost 3 years ago. Since then, Integral has been busy obtaining patents on almost every conceivable use for ElectriPlast. From wires in your car to, well you name it...
It was a good story then, and has emerged into even a better story.
I am not in love with this or any other stock, but I do value the fullness of a story, and this one has the legs to make you believe the gist of what you hear in its regard.
And that is just a very small slice of the whole story. But it may give you a sense as to why I was here then, and why I have kept tabs on the company up to now...
Cheers and best,
PK sends...
