Olga, As a long time F'CM watcher, just a little cold water
on the sellabraton: This, in my opinion, at this point in
time , is a hype announcement.
"According to Franklin CEO Frank Peters, "While much excitement has been engendered recently over Linux
IPOs -- like Red Hat Inc. (Nasdaq:RHAT) and VA Linux (Nasdaq:LNUX) -- it's interesting to note that all of
our VoIP products, including our award-winning Tempest(R) System and the forthcoming Breeze(TM) and
Typhoon(R) lines have been Linux based from their inception.
"We haven't needed to add Linux compatibility -- it was designed in from the beginning. This is very gratifying
Of course it's great for all the folks that understand that
this is a prime the well pump up. I wonder where all those
shares came from that were gobbled up the last two days.
Of course, I could be wrong and this could be something, but
I'll have to see some sales announcements to believe it.
Oh, when they talk about award winning, a word to the wise:
ask what awards,i.e., other than "the best of show" that gets given to approx. 25% of exhibitors in trade shows.
In my opinion its still a trading stock and you can get in
very backwards by falling in love with it.
Best of luck,
