<p><b>Item 8.01. Other Events</b></p>
<p>On December 26, 2006, Socket Communications, Inc. (the "Company") received
  a letter from the Listing Qualifications Department of The Nasdaq Stock Market
  (the "Staff") indicating that the Company regained compliance with the $1.00
  minimum bid price requirement, as required by Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5), for
  continued listing on the Nasdaq Global Market Exchange. Previously, on December
  11, 2006, the Company received a deficiency letter from the Staff indicating
  that the Company had failed to comply with the minimum bid price requirement
  of $1.00 over the previous 30 consecutive business days as required by Marketplace
  Rule 4450(a)(5). During the subsequent compliance period provided under the
  Marketplace Rules, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock was at
  $1.00 per share or greater for at least 10 consecutive business days. Accordingly,
  the Staff has informed the Company that it has regained compliance with Marketplace
  Rule 4450(a)(5).</p>
<p>The full text of the Company's press release concerning its compliance with
  the minimum bid price requirement of Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5) is furnished
  with this Current Report as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.</p>

<p>Dear Mr. Dunlap: </p>
<p>On December 11, 2006, Staff notified the Company that its common stock failed
  to maintain a minimum bid price of $1.00 over the previous 30 consecutive days
  as required by the Marketplace Rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market (the "Rule").
  Since then, the closing bid price of the Company's common stock has been at
  $1.00 per share or greater for at least 10 consecutive business days. Accordingly,
  the Company regained compliance with Marketplace Rule 4450(a)(5) and this matter
  is now closed.</p>
<p>If you have any questions, please contact Tom Choe, Senior Analyst, at (301)
