[MLB-WIRELESS] $50 order has officially fallen through

[Steven Haigh]

Don't go racing off just yet.... There will be a bulk buy - That I give my
word. I'm in talks directly with Enterasys now regarding this, and should
hopefully have an answer for the group as a whole in the next couple of
days...

I cannot stand idle and let this one slip - I know a lot of people were
hoping this would come through, and I'm devoted to make it happen - and
hopefully still at the $50 per card mark.

Signed,
Steven Haigh
