ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with
the Company's Financial Statements and Notes thereto included elsewhere in
this Form 10-Q. This Form 10-Q contains, in addition to historical
information, forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties.
The Company's actual results could differ materially from the results
discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or
contribute to such differences include those discussed below, as well as
those discussed in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
OVERVIEW
Since its formation, the Company has been in the development stage with
its principal activities consisting of assembling a qualified technical and
executive management team, continuing the development of its products,
commencing pre-introduction marketing activities and raising capital. The
Company operates in a rapidly changing market and technology. The Company
has generated no significant revenues and has incurred substantial losses
since its inception. The Company expects to continue to incur significant
losses in 1998.
The Company expects revenues to be derived primarily from the sale of
its wireless mobile computing products. The Company does not expect to have
any significant revenues until the third quarter of 1998 at the earliest.
Sales are expected to be through purchase order contracts with each customer
and will vary in profitability.
The Company's primary product is the Discovery I-TM-, a fully integrated
smart handheld device for wireless data communications. The Company
commenced commercial production and shipment of the Discovery I-TM- late in
the first quarter of 1998. The Company purchased certain manufacturing,
tooling and test equipment to support its move to commercial production. In
addition, the Company expects to add to its engineering, marketing and sales
staff to support its shift into commercial product sales. During 1998, the
Company expects to invest in continuing development of enhancements, upgrades
and software for its current products as well as limited development of
additional new products, including both applications software, wireless
gateway servers, and other network interfaces for the Discovery I-TM-,
subject to the amount and timing of the Company's achieving additional new
funding or significant revenues.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
REVENUES
The Company had revenues of $26,795 and $49,325 for the second quarter
and first half of 1998, respectively, compared to no revenues in the second
quarter and first half of 1997. Revenues were derived from sales of
commercial units of the Company's Discovery I-TM-. Sales were made to three
(3) customers in the first half of 1998, which the Company believes are
evaluating the Discovery I-TM-product. Operating expenses decreased by 4% to
$457,409 in the second quarter of 1998 and by 15% to $847,594 for the first
half of 1998, as compared to $477,674 and $1,004,909 in the corresponding
periods of 1997,
-7-
<PAGE>
primarily reflecting the Company's shift from research and development
efforts to other areas of the Company in preparation for ongoing production
and sales.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT EXPENSES
Research and development expenses since inception have consisted
primarily of payments to engineering consultants, payments of salaries and
fringe benefits of employees and purchase of engineering parts and materials.
To date, the Company has expensed all such costs as incurred. Engineering
consulting projects have for the most part been completed, and expenses for
such projects have been substantially reduced to $70,220 in the first half of
1998, compared with $357,250 in the first half of 1997, with most continued
engineering work now being performed by employees of the Company. The
Company expects product development expenses associated with the Discovery
I-TM- to remain at current levels in the near-term, however, the Company
expects additional costs to be incurred for production support as the Company
continues to begin commercial manufacturing of its initial products. The
Company anticipates that it will also devote substantial resources to
additional product enhancements, application support, application software
development and development of E.Com's planned back-end wireless gateway
server.
SALES, MARKETING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Sales, marketing, general and administrative expenses include payroll
and related costs for the Company's administrative and executive personnel,
costs related to the Company's marketing and promotional efforts, office
lease expenses and other overhead costs, and legal and accounting costs and
fees of consultants and professionals. Sales, marketing, general and
administrative expenses for the quarter ended June 30, 1998 were $281,814, as
compared to $196,697 for the quarter ended June 30, 1997. For the six months
ended June 30, 1998, and the six months ended June 30, 1997, these expenses
were $528,758 and $372,076, respectively, reflecting primarily increased
introduction activities for the Discovery I-TM-. The Company expects sales,
marketing, general and administrative expenses to continue to increase
substantially in future periods as the Company invests in marketing
activities to promote its products. In addition, the Company continued to
incur significant accounting and legal expenses associated with the
registration of its securities for public trading on the OTC Bulletin Board
as required by the terms of the most recent private offering as well as the
increased statutory reporting requirements that such registration dictates.
Legal and accounting expenses resulting from this registration for the six
month period ended June 30, 1998 were $44,865 and $15,000 respectively. The
Company expects ongoing legal and accounting expenses to remain above those
of 1997 levels due to its ongoing business development activities.
NET LOSS
Net cumulative loss from corporate inception through June 30, 1998 was
approximately $3.4 million or $2.34 per share. For the quarter ended June 30,
1998, the Company recorded a net loss of $443,966 or $0.19 per share, versus
a net loss of $482,127 or $0.39 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 1997.
For the six month period ended June 30, 1998, the Company recorded a net
loss of $808,210 or $0.34 per share, versus a net loss of $1,017,685 or $0.90
per share for the six month period ended June 30, 1997, primarily reflecting
ongoing operating expenses prior to establishment of a significant revenue
stream.

<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
To date, the Company has financed its operations primarily through
private placements of common stock. At December 31, 1997, the Company had
shareholders' equity of approximately $2.1 million, although from inception
through December 31, 1997, the Company had incurred an accumulated deficit of
approximately $2.6 million. The Company had cash and cash equivalents of
$1.8 million at December 31, 1997. As of June 30, 1998, the Company had
shareholders' equity of approximately $1.2 million and cash and cash
equivalents of $0.6 million.
The Company applied the proceeds from the most recent private offering
to payment of outstanding accounts payable, tooling costs, retirement of a
shareholder loan, and salaries, benefits and other regular monthly expenses.
The Company also expects that its operating costs will increase as the
Company hires additional staff to expand its marketing, engineering support
and production capabilities. If and when higher volume sales of the Company's
products occur, working capital needs will also increase to finance inventory
and accounts receivable.
The Company's future expenditures and capital requirements will depend
on numerous factors, including the progress of its product development,
manufacturing, sales and marketing programs and sales growth. The Company
expects its cash requirements to increase significantly each year as it
expands its activities and operations to finance increased personnel costs,
inventory and accounts receivable. Additionally, the Company will continue to
evaluate possible acquisitions of, or investments in businesses, products,
and technologies that are complementary to those of the Company, which may
require the use of cash. The Company currently expects that its cash and
cash equivalents will satisfy its working capital needs for approximately
four months, assuming that the Company generates no unanticipated revenues
and makes no acquisitions of assets or companies during such period. The
Company anticipates needing to raise additional capital, debt or equity, in
public or private offerings or loan transactions to finance its continued
growth. As of August 7, 1998, the Company has held discussions with various
investors and investment bankers concerning additional financing, but has not
reached any agreement concerning additional financing. There is no guarantee
that additional funding will occur in the required time frame. Failure of
the Company to obtain additional financing could have a material adverse
impact on the Company, including its ability to continue as a going concern.
