********* Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2001 09:14:47 -0400 From: [deleted by request] To: Declan McCullagh <declan@well.com> Declan: Please find below a statement about Digital Angel that you can attribute to "a company spokesperson." Thanks for the opportunity to respond. I trust you will circulate this statement in full to your readership. Here's the statement: "We appreciate the opportunity to issue a statement about Digital Angel to your readers. We have studied the marketplace for emergency location and medical monitoring devices and we're convinced there is a huge potential market need for a wearable, external device. That is our sole focus. Let there be no mistake or confusion about this. Digital Angel is being developed as a wearable, wristwatch-type device that will, among other things, help save lives by locating lost or missing children or at-risk patients who may require emergency medical attention. We are not now developing, nor do we have any plans to develop, anything other than an external, wearable device." ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLITECH -- Declan McCullagh's politics and technology mailing list You may redistribute this message freely if you include this notice.
