Item 1.  Changes in Control of Registrant


     The board of directors of registrant has been presented with a
proposed share exchange between majority shareholders of DataPower USA,
Inc., a provider of video over normal telephone lines and the internet, and
the registrant, which, if approved, would result in these shareholders
receiving approximately 60% of the then-to-be-issued and outstanding stock
of registrant, in exchange for a controlling interest in DataPower USA to
be held by registrant.  DataPower has an exclusive license granted by World
Wide Video, Inc. to manufacture, sell and distribute World Wide's
technology and products in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and
on US military bases.  The primary product line is based on custom ultra-
high speed hardware utilizing the H.324 Codec (video signal and encode and
decode) and compression technology.  The H.324 standard permits video,
voice and data to be shared simultaneously over high-speed modem
connections.  It is the first standard to specify inter-operability over a
single analog phone line.  DataPower's products operate over traditional
business and residential copper wire telephone systems commonly referred to
as Plain Old Telephone Systems (POTS).  POTS represent approximately 87% of
the world's present telephone installed base, hooking together an estimated
650,000,000 telephones.  The products licensed from World Wide Video
deliver high speed television signals over normal telephone lines. 
DataPower's technology compresses and decompresses video and data signals
faster than any of the current competitors, providing clearer pictures at
faster frame rates per second.

     Conclusion of the transaction is dependent upon certain conditions
being met by DataPower with respect to financial obligations at the time of
the share exchange, and approval by the registrant's board of directors. 
Completion of the requisite conditions and board approval are not
anticipated for at least 15 days.


Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

     If the proposed exchange agreement is approved and the conditions are
met, then the transaction should be completed prior to February 28, 1999. 
None of the officers, directors or affiliates of the registrant have any
interest in DataPower.  The shares of DataPower to be acquired will be
acquired from Brian Harris and Phil Wong, neither of whom have any prior
relationship to any of the officers, directors or affiliates of registrant. 
The registrant will be issuing approximately 3,680,000 shares of its common
stock to acquire the shares of DataPower from Harris and Wong.
