Auric,
As far as WSTL having a "sheety business model", the financials will speak for themselves.

I thought I would post an interesting viewpoint about WSTL vs EFNT I just read on yahoo. Kind of the man in the street commentary:

at investing in DSL equipment suppliers i have been looking at the difference of EFNT and WSTL. I recently set up my DSL<this week>, i hadnt recieved my filters for jacks so i called Bell Atl. While on the phone with one of the support personel i found out that the WSTL modems are being pushed at this time due to problems that arose from EFNT's internal modems among other reasons. GTE and BELL as we all know have merged, this is interesting as i noticed a news story on GTE and WSTL a little while back. Second thing that i thought was interesting is that BELL ATL. was told to put a hold on thier current expansion of DSL accounts in the market until Sept. This is interesting as we could very well see an explosive 2nd or third QTR in WSTL since they are the vendor of choice at this time at BELL ATL. Also of note was that the support personel told me they are signing accounts up at unbelievable rates.

As far as financials i was looking at EFNT's and WSTL's yahoo research and found a few things of interest.
1) WSTL has beaten est. in 4 of the last 5 qrts, and EFNT has missed estimates in i believe 3 of the last 5 qtrs.

2)WSTL's estimates have been upgraded over the 90 to 7 day periods as EFNT's have been downgraded over that same time period.

3)as far as a valuation concern i noticed that EFNT has surged whereas WSTL has until recently been stagnant, WSTL in my opinion has more upside to it at this time over EFNT

based on these facts and others i have without a doubt found the company i will be investing in on Monday morning. I am also expecting another price surge with EFNT coming in with numbers, and if all goes well there expect WSTL to move up in simpathy of EFNT's numbers.">>

I hope to find GOLD in WSTL,
