1) They want to smooth their quarterly revenue going forward and increase their backlog.

2) It could also be that one of their customers, like NTT, wants a
slower implementation schedule, so ASND is adjusting.

I seriously doubt it has anything to do with an acquisition price
target.

Sector,

Merger mania may have gone too far, here (and you know I believe that one is in the works).

Shifting of revenue from 1Q98 to later in the year seems -- as you say -- irrelevant vis-a-vis the issue of any acquisition.
