Brian Swift – Security Research Associates
Thank you. A couple of questions. One, have you received the cash for the sale of the serial operation in the quarter? If so, how much and I noticed that the current liabilities, accounts payable went up about $0.5 million. So what would that be attributable to?
Dave Dunlap
In terms of the sales of serial business, we – the transaction closed on September 30th and we received the cash on that date. So it is reflected in the cash on the balance sheet at the end of September. I think the increase in payables is more timing. We have been acquiring replacement inventory in anticipation of fourth quarter and the amounts due to the vendors will be due more in October than in September. So it’s a function more of the timing of the amounts that we owe our vendors.
Brian Swift – Security Research Associates
Okay. And can you – can you just – in previous quarters, you have indicated how many SoMo's you’ve shipped and I didn’t – I hear a dollar number, but I didn’t hear the –
Kevin Mills
I indicated it at 3,167, Brian, which is a 119 less than our record of the previous quarter, but in Q2 we had 600 units going to Good Sam and we didn’t replace that all. I mean, we replaced 500 of those with run rates, but we were up 14% excluding Good Sam, but down 119 units to 3,167.
Dave Dunlap
And on an accumulated basis, Brian, through the end of third quarter, our account is 22,212. So we are now moving up – continuing to move up in terms of the total units that are sold and most of the units are in the market today.
Brian Swift – Security Research Associates
Okay. And I know the last time I was down visiting with you, you had some other hospital care type – not hospital, but I mean home retirement or residential or whatever type care people similar to Good Samaritan kind of in your queue. Where is – where are they now? Is that starting to ramp up?
Kevin Mills
We haven't signed the deal. We have a few people who’ve started, but unlike Good Samaritan we don't have a contract we can talk about. We are in discussions with a few larger groups at the moment and we are hoping to get those to conclude, I would say, one or two before the end of the year, but realistically they are 2010 opportunities.
