"nearly every person that started there until the IPO still has around 9 million in stock options on the table at this level."

That is certainly good for them but where does Sycamore get the capital to ramp up production to keep pace with the exploding demand for fiber optic networking products? Where does Sycamore get the capital to finance the construction of new networks like Nortel and Lucent are doing? Where does Sycamore, or Ciena for that matter, get the integrated network products which are available for Cisco, Nortel and Lucent? It seems to me that the market correction favors the big players unless one of the startups has some proprietary technology which the majors can't match.
