Sam, Robert: I think we should be careful and avoid setting ourselves
up for "disappointment". EPS really doesn't much mean when a company
is growing fast, since it can be easily manipulated as management see fit.
Investors who don't look beyond the EPS can miss the real story and
longterm winner.

High shorterm expectations often lead to higher, unreasonable expectations
which eventually no company can meet on a consistent basis. Look at what
happen to IOMG, CSCC, PAIR, etc. They all beat street estimates substantially,
but expectations and "whisper numbers " were too high.
