Maybe not, unfortunately. I cam across the following over the weekend. Looks like the entry price has skyrocketed in 2 months.

InfoWorld Electric via NewsEdge Corporation : Akamai Technologies has attracted a couple of big-name investors --
Cisco Systems and Apple Computer. Both companies have bought into the Cambridge, Mass.-based start-up, which
offers Internet content delivery services.

The Cisco deal was announced Wednesday, at the same time as the Apple investment -- which was made in June -- was
revealed. As an indication of the fast track Akamai seems to be on, the Cisco investment of $49 million amounts to a 4
percent stake in the company, while Apple's $12.5 million June investment bought it about 5 percent of Akamai, which is
privately held.
