Steve - a wag on my part is that it trades within 1 st day range for a while before breaking out or breaking down; my guess is the former.

Its a tremendous concept stock; my major concern is subscribers, I just called to get information from tci customer service - I got the distinct impression that the subscription rate was pretty slow - but that is only one sample (ie one customer service rep).

Their backlog is not big - just a few day turnaround time. They offer a lot of value $150 sign up cost (exclusive of taxes and local fees) which includes modem, ethernet card, wiring, setup etc. Monthly fee of $39.95 exclusive of taxes and local fees.

Bandwidth - 100x that of 28.8k modem in actual use; they claim 2 MB file can be downloaded in 1.6 sec.

Again great potential , should be selling like hotcakes, but is not from the one contact I had. Does anyone have other feedback from the company re. rate of subscriptions??? Thats the key to valuation imo.
