I have owned this one off and on for 4 years or so (on mostly). I figured they HAD to bite the bullet on Auro. The opening of the FL office a few months ago was a tip off. Now with this agreement with ADC Telecom (ADTC NYSE 47) we can finally move ahead. Other developments should help to broaden the scope here. I think we have an exciting few qtrs coming up. Company is now very well positioned to benefit from the broadband explosion. My opinion only...do your homework...all filings avail edgar.
