David,

Why is it that you only come around when the stock is down to rub our noses in it? Where were you in June when the stock was $20? What has changed since then? They missed their quarter by 1 penny. They have $200 million in the bank. Their growth has flattened, for now, but they are still making money, putting away $10 million per quarter. And they are still regarded as an attractive acquisition.

They have well regarded technology, and I would think that the worst thing that could happen now is that Charlie would accept an offer for something like $15 per share (a double from current prices), which is significantly less than he could have gotten 6 months ago. On the other hand, I think that they will continue to hold a significant portion of the HDSL market, and they can look forward to some portion of whatever ADSL market there might be in the near future.

I think that I speak for many here when I say that we would appreciate your input more if it was more constructive.

Thanks for listening,

Greg
