Is it safe to conclude Phone.com is providing the underlying structure for Yahoo via their WAP forum? It looks like Sprint is basing their Yahoo offering on using WAP/Phone.com.

For what it's worth, PPHCM was up $19 today. They were up $17 the other day. All this has been a sharp rebound from a very short lived drop to $38 and closing today at $84 after hitting the 52 week high of 89 before backing off.

Clearly, this company is a very strong stock to watch in the Anywhere, Anytime category. Maybe we'll see them press on to new highs this week. I think it would also be very bullish if they got a split soon. Regards, Mark
