My apologies Yaacov: I thought I posted back to you but maybe it was Sonny. I did list some picks for him, but not very formally.

Sorry, but I have been consumed this week with several of those picks which have been performing quite well and look set to continue - those are Financial Intranet Inc. (FNTN) - Which incidentally is My #1 pick for the year. Trump Hotels and Casino Resorts Inc. (DJT) another recent fav. One other I like which looks very dynamic is Cyclo PSS Corp (OZON).

As you may recall, I like Korea Telecom, Korean majors and Korean group of funds. We have already done quite well here buying almost the low of the year. Ref: My postings placed co-incidentally at the maximum point of pessimism for big K.

Also like Indonesian Telekom (TLK), has been a superb performer since it bottomed at max pessimism point Jan 8. Virtually a double. I would like to try and buy a retest of this low later in this quarter or next depending on how things play out.

Just saw this on Bloomberg

BN 1/17 Intel to Unveil QuickWeb Product to Speed Internet Surfing
Intel to Unveil QuickWeb Product to Speed Internet Surfing

Santa Clara, California, Jan. 17 (Bloomberg) - Intel Corp.
said it will introduce on Monday software to help Internet
service providers eliminate some of the delays that plague users
of the worldwide computer network.

Intel will sell Quick Web for an undisclosed price to
Internet service providers, which connect users to the World Wide
Web. Intel said it is negotiating with the 30 largest Internet
service providers and already has signed up three.

Quick Web is Intel's latest product to try to boost usage of
the Internet, which could mean more sales of personal computers
that use Intel chips. The world's largest maker of
microprocessors for personal computers also makes a digital
camera that lets people make video phone calls and send still
images over the Web.

Internet service provider Netcom On-line Communication
Services Inc. agreed to introduce the product Feb. 1 after about
700 of its users helped test it, Intel said.
''Our customers have told us that speed is one of the most
important attributes, and Quick Web gave them a great
improvement,'' said Scott Wills, Netcom's senior vice president
for new business ventures.

Users will pay a premium for the service, probably $5 a
month, and Intel and the online service provider both will get a
percentage of that. Users will have to change one setting on
their browsers to benefit from the new technology.

Santa Clara, California-based Intel's Quick Web cuts
Internet waiting by compressing graphics so they flow through
phone lines faster and by storing images at Internet service
providers so that later requests for the same graphics can be
processed locally.
