IPTV Stock Recommendation

Baltimore, Maryland Mon., Nov. 28th, 2005

IPTV Stock Recommendation

In this Issue...

* Welcome New Subscribers
* IPTV: The New Boob Tube
* Buy an IP Pure Play
* Goodbye Satellites; Hello IP
* An IP Military
* Disaster Relief to go IP

Dear Archimedes Lever reader:

First, I'd like to say that I really hope that you enjoyed your
Thanksgiving holiday. I know I did. I've been eating leftover turkey for
days. And I love it.

Second, I'd like to welcome all the new subscribers we received over the
holiday weekend. Archimedes' Lever is becoming increasingly popular with
each passing day. And today's readers can consider themselves among the
first ten thousand subscribers.

Now onto business.

If you subscribe to Wealth Daily, you already know what I have in store
for you today: A new stock recommendation that I am tremendously excited
about.

Now like I told Wealth Daily members on Friday, I wasn't going to talk
about this company for another few weeks. But my inbox has been slammed
with emails asking about IPTV. And I just can't keep the company a
secret any longer.

And if you missed the piece about IPTV and how big it is soon going to
become, let me quickly run you through it.

Okay. So you've heard of VoIP, right? Voice over Internet Protocol. VoIP
allows users to transmit audio signals over a broadband internet
connection.

IPTV is very similar to VoIP. Except that instead of transmitting a
voice signal over the internet, IPTV broadcasts audio and visual
signals.

The New Boob Tube

IPTV is basically a system where digital television is delivered to
subscribing customers over a broadband connection. And it will
revolutionize the way we watch TV.

Every television program, movie, and advertisement will have hyperlinks
that connect to the internet for more information. And while your
surfing your IPTV, you'll be able to send and receive email or text
messages to friends and family.

You'll never have to leave the couch again. (I'm going long
WeightWatchers!)

Now here's why we're going to make a substantial profit on this stock.
Simply put: IPTV is going to be massive.

IPTV is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years as broadband
is now available to more than 100 million households worldwide.

Market professionals say that by the year 2007 there will be more than
200 million digital TV homes subscribers with 25% global market
penetration.

Worldwide subscribers to cable video on demand services will increase to
almost 14 million in 2007 (up from about 5 million at the end of 2003).

Broadband penetration in the United States and Europe will grow to 290
million in 2008 (up from 25 million in 2002).

It is predicted in less that 5 years, 72 million homes worldwide will
subscribe to IPTV services.

What does this boil down to? Profit. Massive profit.

IPTV is rapidly emerging and will be available to you in just a few
years if not sooner.

For those businesses implementing IPTV it will provide a means of
deploying interactive content and meetings unlike anything previously
available on such a large scale.

For the consumer it will provide an interactive experience unlike
anything they have known as the technology evolves and becomes
wide-spread.

And for the investor it will offer a new technology to capitalize.

Which brings me to the topic at hand: Archimedes' Lever second stock
recommendation.

This company has already partnered with some of the biggest names in
communication including Motorola, Nextel, Nortel, Lucent, and RCA.

That name of the company is Optibase (NASDAQ:OBAS)


(NASDAQ:OBAS)
Buy OBAS up to $5.00

Optibase is the lever that'll move next generation television.

It is a leading provider of high quality IPTV streaming, encoding,
decoding and video server upload solutions for telecom operators,
service providers, broadcasters and content creators.

Now there's two things that really stood out when I looked at this
company.

One, the company is almost an IPTV pure play. This is going to make
Optibase incredibly attractive to investors once IPTV becomes a
household word.

Two, it's cheap. At last look the company was trading at $4.70 a share.
And it has a paltry market cap of just $62 million. This thing is a
true-blue microcap.

But listen. OBAS is even cheaper than that.

OBAS is sitting on $47.7 million in cash. So if you subtract the cash
position from the current market, you get an enterprise valuation of $18
million!

The market is completely dismissing this stock. valuing the company less
than its annual revenues, which are $26 million.

This has buy all over it.

I'd also like to point out the average three month volume is 17,000 per
day. Less than $100,000 worth of stock trades hands each day making it
virtually unknown on Wall Street.

So let's talk a little more about the company.

Now I don't want get into all the technical gibberish of platforms,
encoders, decoders, DBV/PCI multiplexers and the like.

So let me break it down nice and simple for you. Optibase manufactures
and markets all the necessary equipment needed to broadcast IPTV.

Even though Optibase is still trading under $5 a share, this is no
fly-by-night operation.

When setting up networks that offer IPTV solutions that present a
competitive edge, the difference rests on reliability, availability,
flexibility and quality of service.

Optibase's IPTV products give carriers all that and more.

By deploying Optibase's highly respected IPTV platforms, carriers can
use conventional phone lines to stream video over phone lines, over
fiber optics and over DSL. Moreover Optibase's platforms support several
different transmissions.

Keep all this in mind as I tell you more about how Optibase's technology
is going revolutionize our lives.

You see, Optibase's products can be used in more applications than just
watching Everyone Love Raymond.

Goodbye Satellites, Hello IP

Content delivery is an essential part of broadcasting. Broadcasters need
to deliver content between affiliate stations and from regional stations
back to headquarters. Video contribution over leased satellite lines is
costly. But by using IP networks, it is possible to drastically reduce
costs without compromising on quality.

Optibase's IP Video Contribution offers all the advantages of delivering
video over IP, without any of the prohibitive costs involved in leasing
dedicated satellite lines.

IP networks also allow broadcasters and operators to manage bandwidth in
a far more efficient way. More bandwidth means faster transmissions. So
long to the days of feed delays from field reporters.

Also IP networks are accessible 24 hours a day as opposed to leased
lines and satellite links that are leased on an hourly basis. IP
networks also offer superb video quality. No more snow due to satellite
interruption.

An IP Military

Optibase's carrier will transform the way military organizations and
security agencies retrieve, monitor and analyze live audio-visual
information.

Through the use of Optibase's advanced video compression and processing,
video streaming over IP networks and sophisticated analysis and
retrieval tools, military and government command and control centers can
have full visibility and control in critical missions and life
threatening situations allowing them to make real time decisions and
respond immediately.

With IP technology military and intelligence agencies will be able to:

* Monitor geographically dispersed points of conflict and target
areas via various cameras and other sensors located in unmanned
aircrafts or in remote locations.
* Create a live two-way video dialog between combat commanders,
fighter pilots and central command. Using these two advanced
technologies central command, pilots and field officers can share live
video displays, identify targets and make mission critical decisions in
real time.

Disaster Relief to go IP

Optibase's advanced video analysis can also save lives in mass casualty
events or when disaster strikes.

Broadcast quality video streamed in real-time with minimum delay from a
disaster or emergency scene to a control center gives emergency response
teams the ability to follow events closely in real-time and respond
accordingly.

The key to a time-critical response and decision making is speedy and
accurate access to large video libraries.

This only scratches the surface, folks.

Buy Optibase (NASDAQ:OBAS) up to $5.00

Until next time,

Chicken Dance - Avian Flu (Bird Flu Economic Impact)

Quote of the Day

"Life belongs to the living, and he who lives must be prepared for
changes."

- Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Dear Wealth Daily Reader,

It was probably mentioned a million times at the dinner tables over the
Thanksgiving holiday this year.

Especially because the traditional Thanksgiving meal is turkey.

You know what I'm talking about. The bird flu.

Just to be on the safe-side, my mother cooked this year's bird so long,
it went from an original weight of 26-pounds to 12! And it was drier
than the Mohave desert.

Thank goodness for gravy!

There isn't a day that goes by where the old bird flu isn't mentioned by
the talking heads of CNN, Fox, MSNBC, among the others.

And if you're like me, you're quite simply sick of hearing about it. Yet
the fact is that it is becoming a very serious problem.

I read a news story this morning that said Chinese officials claim that
the bird flu virus in humans has mutated. That's bad news for anyone who
doesn't want the bird flu.

Bird Flu Strain Mutates

Chinese health representatives have found that the H5N1 strain of bird
flu, the one that human's can contract, has mutated as compared with
strains found in human cases in Vietnam.

Today the Xinhua news agency reported that Chinese labs have found that
the genetic order of the H5N1 virus seen in humans infected in China is
different from that found in humans in Vietnam.

Health official's worst fear is that the virus could mutate to the
extent where it is easily transmitted from human-to-human.

In this event a global pandemic capable of killing hundreds of millions
of people would be possible.

Brian Hicks has been talking about the bird flu in his New America
Investor and even recommended a bird flu stock that he believes is going
to go hyper-ballistic.

You see once an American contracts the bird flu virus on U.S. property,
I believe he's right.

While we keep hearing bird flu cases in East Asian countries, have no
doubt the bird flu is coming to the U.S.

In fact, it's almost here.

Bird Flu in The Back Yard

The avian flu will soon encroach onto U.S. soil despite the efforts of
health officials. It's already in our back yard.

Last week Canadian authorities confirmed two wild ducks tested positive
for the H5 bird flu virus.

While this is not the deadly H5N1 strain that is currently ravaging
poultry stocks in Asia, the flu strain has every chance to mutate.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency said the ducks were discovered with
the H5 virus at a farm just outside of Vancouver, British Columbia.

More than 67,000 ducks and geese will be terminated and officials will
be investigating other operations within a 3 mile radius for signs of
infection.

Following the latest outbreak, the United States and Taiwan has imposed
a ban on poultry from the region and Japan banned all Canadian poultry
imports.

But the U.S. continues to accept imports from the rest of Canada.

According to the USDA's Foreign Agriculture Service's Web site, the U.S.
imported $185.9 million in poultry and poultry products from Canada last
year, a 37% increase from the previous year. Canada is the
seventh-biggest exporter of poultry.

The deadly H5N1 virus has infected at least 130 people and killed 67 in
Asia, since it first broke out in 2003.

And like I said, once it crosses the boarder, Brian's bird flu play is
going to go nuts.

Massive Metal Rally

Today most metals hit multi-year highs in a broad metals rally.

Gold futures topped off just short of the key $500-an-ounce level while
platinum prices rose above $1,000 for the first time in more than a
quarter of a century.

Copper joined in on the action as well, closing at an all-time futures
high atop $2 a pound.

Take a look:

The recent growing demand for gold stems not only from investment
perspectives and outright jewelry purchases, but it seems that every
reason imaginable for buying gold has been used over the past week or
so.

But be careful. While a pop above $500 is certainly likely on buying
from those late to the market, a correction is increasingly likely. Gold
prices are pushing toward an overbought condition.

Meanwhile, platinum futures reached a high of $1,011 an ounce in New
York, a level not seen since March 1980. The all-time high still stands
at $1,189.50.

December copper, which touched a high of $2.017 a pound in New York,
closed up 4.75 cents at $2.016.

Copper's rally has been driven partly by speculation that China is being
forced to buy massive quantities of the industrial metal to cover a
short position taken by a rogue trader.

Whatever the reason, the brown metal has never seen such high numbers.

    Strategies for Reducing the Cost of Achieving and Maintaining IT Compliance-December 14

    Ziff Davis Media and Opsware cordially invite you to an exclusive
    roundtable on:

    Strategies for Reducing the Cost of Achieving and Maintaining IT
    Compliance

    December 14, 2005 - New York City

    Companies will spend over $15.5 billion on compliance this year. By 2010,
    they will spend $80 billion and 40% of this will be allotted to labor
    costs. Some organizations have adopted compliance automation solutions to
    help them achieve and maintain IT compliance.
    You and a small group of your peers will have an open dialog to discuss
    how your organizations are addressing compliance challenges. You'll also
    hear how one company is leveraging compliance automation to achieve and
    maintain IT compliance.

    Learn how your organization can leverage compliance automation to reduce
    the costs associated with these actual situations:

    Failed an FTC audit that triggered audits for the next 20 years with
    fines of $11,000 per violation per day
    Enforce access control policies on 6,000 network devices across 2,000
    branch offices every quarter to meet Sarbanes-Oxley requirements
    Proved to auditors that infrastructure managed by a third party was
    actually in compliance
    Provide evidence that changes executed on critical systems followed the
    corporate approval process

    Join us for this interactive discussion that focuses on server,
    application, and network device management strategies for compliance with
    the Director of IT for SunGard, and Tim Howes, CTO of Opsware, named an
    InfoWorld Top 25 CTO.

    Date: December 14th, 2005
