***A Message to the Readers of WAVE
by John Latta

WAVE has a following of 3,200 readers, however, we estimate that the
actual readership approaches 10,000 based on its reposting on sites and
being passed around. We continue to tune the content and style of WAVE
and over the last several issues the readers should have noticed some
changes. WAVE covers News, Views, Reviews and Events in the 3D and
developing media industries. An area of recent emphasis are Views from
key individuals. This issue includes a summary of WAVE's meeting with
Eric Hautemont, President, Fractal Design. It is our intent to seek
stories beyond the flood of press releases and bring information and news
which is unique to WAVE. We will also be doing more reviews (very short)
of products and books. The style of WAVE remains the same - short and to
the point. As always your feedback, both positive and negative, is
sought.

As readers you can help us by making sure we get press releases and
company information either via e-mail (wave@fourthwave.com) or FAX
(703)360-2311.
