“The opportunity of a lifetime must be seized in the lifetime of the opportunity.”
…Leonard Ravenhill
Microvision stock [NASDAQ: MVIS] is an investment that represents the opportunity of a lifetime… in our lifetime. And it is a BIG opportunity that can propel us to our financial goals in one great leap within our active lifetime… like in the next 4 to 5 years.
Here are FIVE REASONS not to let this opportunity pass you by and why you should quickly reposition your assets now…
REASON #2
When IBM first introduced the PC in 1980, nobody in their wildest dreams imagined that it will dramatically change the world as we know today. It took about 20 years but we have witnessed dramatic improvements in personal and worker productivity, collaboration, communications, networking, information databases and knowledge creation and exchanges.
Now 25 years later, we are on the cusp of another mega change… a paradigm shift. This time the changes will occur [faster] and impact the way we communicate [visually], network, collaborate, share, care and exchange knowledge and information.
Not only that, the low power requirement of [less than 3watts] the PicoP display engine embedded in all things digital and built into TVs and Projectors may just extend our resources [financial and natural] and save the planet earth from slow death. For example, the biggest energy guzzlers on this planet are big screen TVs.
News from this morning says it all…
California appears poised to be first to ban power-guzzling big-screen TVs
The LosAngeles Times
By Marc Lifsher
October 14, 2009
“Reporting from Sacramento - The influential lobby group Consumer Electronics Assn. is fighting what appears to be a losing battle to dissuade California regulators from passing the nation's first ban on energy-hungry big-screen televisions.”
Here’s the link to the news…

The energy problem is not just in California… it’s a world-wide problem that needs addressing now before the planet destroys itself with too much “carbon footprint” or due to lack of “energy” to fuel and feed the world’s 6 billion population. Energy conservation, in a big way, is coming soon to every single US state… and it’s just the matter of time. Electric brown-outs and rationing is in our near future... that is if we, as a nation, do not make an aggressive and collective effort to conserve.
Talking about conservation...
"The use of PicoP display engines in TVs and Projectors that give us high definition; large screen; always in focus display at a fraction of power [less than 3watts for PicoP display engine] may just be the answer to our worldwide energy problem… where a billion or so TVs suck the energy out of planet in exchange for a few hours of HD entertainment.
I’m sure you will agree that Microvision’s PicoP display technology is disruptive [of a mega proportion] and of a nature that could cause dramatic shift in “technology paradigm” and the “social paradigm” around the world.
Specifically, for the third world countries, for example, the technology paradigm shift would be…
“20inch energy guzzling TVs replaced with a 60inch Integrated Mobile TV/Projector, with built-in DVD player and speakers, at HD resolution with image projection on any surface…always in focus…at miniscule power usage of less than 3watts for the display engine… and at about $699 US dollars.”
The PicoP display engine market for the Integrated Mobile TV/Projector [in the developing countries] is over 1 billion worldwide with an adoption rate ten times bigger than you can hope for the embedded Mobile phone market. Consider this…
• Total population of India and China is over 2.8 billion and growing. Considering an average household size of 5 [for India] and 4 [for China] you have about 650 million households. Ironically, the current Mobile phone market in India and China is also about 700 million. Assuming that the middle-class [only] can afford a Mobile phone then there are 700 million households that fall in the middle class category in India and China.
• Assuming that a household that can afford a mobile phone can certainly afford [and own] a Television. Therefore, in India and China there are at least 700 million TVs. The middle class in India and China is growing at a 10% rate per year. To this growth, you add the rest of the third world and Eastern European countries [for 300 million TVs] and you have potentially 1 billion TVs market world-wide that is looking for low power consuming, high resolution and large size TV experience.
If Microvision [and the OEM partners] mass produce an Integrated Mobile TV/Projector [with built-in DVD player and speakers] at 60” image, HD resolution and consume no more than 3watts for the display engine… you have a billion households as your potential customers… with an adoption rate of ten times higher than that of embedded Mobile phone. This is a huge market with tremendous financial rewards for the slow and steady hand that can deliver on the promise of PicoP display engine to the energy starved world of ours.
Not only that, the low power requirement of the PicoP display engine in Integrated Projectors and Integrated Mobile TVs/Projectors may just extend our resources [financial and natural] and save the planet earth from slow death.
Unlike the US and other western countries, electric power in highly populated countries like India, China, Eastern Europe and other third world countries is in extreme short supply. Not everyone has electricity and those that do have… face constant brown-outs and rationing. With the world energy supply dwindling, and costs rising dramatically, the electricity is a precious commodity.
