Traderdog-

Your comments are welcome here, but you are preaching to the choir.  Why not take your enthusiasm to other sites where they have not yet heard of the ZVUE miracle stock. 
You, my Traderdog, could be responsible for many a Merry X-Mas if you do your job right!  Poor investors will finally make $ in the stock market and be able to buy their kids toys!

Actually, this is the gadget of the year!  Forget Wii, Forget Playstation!  I want to show all my friends the Youtube video of the cat chasing the toy helicopter and I don't want to e-mail it to them, I want to bring it to their house and show it to them in person on my 2" screen.
That makes more sense!

But one of my theories of current culture is - the more it annoys me, the more people are likely to buy it.

Look at how AAPL has exploded with anticipation of their new i-phone & their box that allows you to download videos to your TV.

ZVUE is no AAPL, but I'm sure there is some kind of weird parallel there.

Regardless, I hope you are right with 20.

Funeral for a ZVUE handheld:

From Cramer:

Another "bogus perception" going around is that Verizon Communications (VZ) doesn't know what it's doing, Jim said. While market players think it's spending too much money supporting its wireless business and is moving too slowly, he said he does not believe this is true. Jim thinks that VZ is a very low-risk play on a good story. First, its new mobile deal with YouTube will allow kids to send YouTube videos to each other immediately and should be popular. Second, it has a great ringtone downloading business and a "terrific" dividend, he said. Jim thinks that VZ is a good buy here and could be a win for investors in multiple ways.

If you can download your videos on your vz phone, why do you need to buy a ZVUE handheld?

Great...I just bought a little ZVUE today...and now Cramer bashes it.

I have no need for a ZVUE player...and I actually think it's kinda ridiculous to pay $94 for one...but I thought that about the I-pod from Apple 2 years ago.

Anyway I searched Wal-Mart online to see that the ZVUE player is OUT OF STOCK. Maybe they are selling???

Cramer never really mentioned ZVUE + Cramer is a bum.

HandHeld Entertainment Increases Position in the User-Generated Humorous Videos Marketplace by Acquiring FunMansion.com for $1.1 Million
Friday December 1, 5:57 am ET 
FunMansion.com adds approximately 1.5 million monthly unique visitors/potential customers to HandHeld Entertainment's growing network of Web sites; combined monthly traffic of FunMansion.com, Dorks.com and ZVUE.com now provide a growing collection of user-generated comedy videos (along with commercially produced music videos, television programming and feature length movies) to potentially 2.5 million unique visitors per month


SAN FRANCISCO & PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--HandHeld Entertainment(TM) (Nasdaq:ZVUE - News; Nasdaq:ZVUEW - News) today announced it has acquired FunMansion.com(TM) for $1.1 million ($350,000 in cash at closing, $150,000 in cash payable over 12 months and a five-year $600,000 note convertible into common stock).

FunMansion.com has averaged approximately 1.5 million unique visitors per month and more than 3.5 million page views per month during the past two months.

"In a little more than two weeks, we have begun assembling a significant collection of user-generated video content by acquiring Dorks.com(TM) and FunMansion.com," said Jeff Oscodar, president and chief executive officer of HandHeld Entertainment. "The FunMansion.com acquisition takes us to potentially 2.5 million unique visitors per month, with a combined total of more than 5.4 million page views per month, all tied to the comedy/extreme marketplace. We believe that these funny user-generated and user-submitted videos, photos, jokes and more tend to attract demographics that will be attractive to advertisers and sponsors. We also believe that the combination of ZVUE.com's commercial content, coupled with our rapidly growing library of user generated content from Dorks.com, FunMansion.com and ZVUE.com's own FREE Stuff! site, will be a powerful combination for our company."

HandHeld Entertainment's user-generated Web properties -- Dorks.com, FunMansion.com and FREE Stuff! -- now attract nearly 2.5 million unique visitors each month, particularly in the comedy/extreme space. In addition, HandHeld Entertainment announced earlier in November a content agreement with Comedy Time Network to make hundreds of hours of stand-up comedy routines and sketches available for purchase at ZVUE.com. Taken in combination, these two acquisitions and the Comedy Time agreement have helped transform HandHeld Entertainment into a leading provider of comedic/humorous videos for both portable video players and PCs.

Representative of the humorous user-generated and user-submitted videos posted recently on FunMansion.com are the following:

Nutty Paintball Prank at http://funmansion.com/html/Nutty-Paintball-Prank.html;
Finger Scratching DJ at http://funmansion.com/html/Finger-Scratching-DJ.html;
Idiots Playing with Fire at http://funmansion.com/html/Idiots-Playing-With-Fire.html; and
Female Reporter Loses Her Cool at http://funmansion.com/html/Female-Reporter-Loses-Her-Cool.html
"FunMansion.com has been around for more than five years, and we've seen a strong increase in visitors and page views during the past 18 months," said Mary Dunne, founder and owner of FunMansion.com. "I'm really excited to be joining the ZVUE.com network of Web sites. Now I can continue to build the site that I love and can do so with greater resources and scale. Those resources should accelerate FunMansion's growth and bring FunMansion's user-generated videos to a larger audience."

HandHeld Entertainment also has more than 4,400 videos available for purchase on ZVUE.com today out of more than 11,000 video selections it has under contract. These selections include music videos, anime features, television shows, movies, cartoons, independent films, documentaries, news, entertainment and sports programs from companies ranging from Sony BMG to IMG Media and from Canadian Broadcast Corp. to Fun Little Movies.

Launched in February 2001, FunMansion.com hosts free user-generated videos, photo slideshows and Flash-based games and movies.

Cramer mentioned the deal between GOOG and Vz.

But I see what ZVUE is trying to do.  By buying their own sites, they will be able to enable their handheld to download their own videos.  The person would be able to search what he wants and download it.  Brilliant.  A different take from what VZ will do with YOUTUBE.

And scoop up some RNIN.  They make video signage.

Running up again TODAY !

This company is full of Crap.  It seems the product is not even on the shelves during this peak time of year!

F- them and anyone who suggested it!  Oh! I guess that's me!  Well ok then!

I would tend to disagree. If you look at the warrants (ZVUEW), the price has gone down only marginally over the last few dog days, while the stock has tanked. it looks like ZVUEW might me a much more stable and profitable investment than ZVUE in the long run though.

QuoteAnyway I searched Wal-Mart online to see that the ZVUE player is OUT OF STOCK. Maybe they are selling???

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3581895

Maybe they're selling shares, since they're losing $3.4 M a quarter and only sold $123,000 in Q3.

The share count was 11,424,247 on November 14, 2006, but I bet it's some millions more after the run up that started November 15. It can be double those 11 million, so beware, you may be buying a $100 M plus market cap company with no relevant sales and huge losses.

Good luck, though

Is anyone still watching this one? There were a couple of days where ZVUE picked up briefly on news before selling off again. Does this stock still have some fire in her?

Don't know if ZVUE has any "Fire" left...but I wouldn't touch it unless it held above the 9ema.  It just may get a bounce on the 50dma.
