Implied vols. stayed steady, increasing a bit in the Dec/Jan options, and dropping in the April options. The strategy mentioned yesterday, off buying a straddle and fading the opening move (dumping the puts), and then going the other way (holding the calls) would've probably netted about $1 on a $13 position.
