>As Jim said, even though their current product is not as robust as your app, it may be sufficient for their customers needs. It may also be the most cost effective solution for them currently too.

Like I said to Jim. It's doing the basic job. We'll see what they decide when we show them our app. That'll happen eventually. Event though for now we try to not step on their feet too fast. We don't want to awake the (possible) lion that sleeps.


>Still, there is nothing preventing you from contacting the parent company and offering to show them a demo of your app. That may result in a couple of things: 1)the parent company requesting pricing for distributing your app or purchasing it outright 2) the parent company requesting quotes from their current developers to upgrade their product to make it more competitive with yours 3) the parent company not making any changes whatsoever.

That's what scares us about showing them our app. Possibly they'll have more ressources than us to counter-attack and this would've proved to have been a made move from us.



>In the end you could end up with an offer or a more robust competitive product (once they see yours and make changes to their existing app).

AAAAAAaaaaahhhh I don't think that we want that to happen. <g>


>This was actually done by our competiters at one time. Make sure you are sure or your product and its features because those that came to our parent company and demonstrated their product actually demonstrated a less thorough application which made our parent company even happier with us!

We will make sure that the our app. ir really up to par with the competition. But right now we feel comfortable with what we have.
