Happen to agree with you on the pre paid portion of what you said. I have talked to many analysts and ALL of them just do not like that business. It's not that it's not profitable or anything. It is just deemed sort of unsavory I guess because of where most of the cards are sold and the people in the business. I thought it would help when AT"T and WCOM got into the business but it hasn't. The wholesale side too has proven disasterous for most other companies. There is not a telecom analyst out there who hasn't been badly burned rec. some company that either went belly up or bankrupt with it. However, I do think being the carriers carrier so to speak will serve them well getting into fiber and also opens doors as others don't view IDT as competition.
