Al I agree and may I add,I got here because I believed in the tech not the company or the management at the time,I realized that the management would change and it has.I believed that the Focus would change and it has,I believed that the stock would suffer and it has,I also believed that the company would become a different kind of supplier of different eq and it has.The IPO/PP and Series C are needed business matters that will always have to be addressed.
I Also know that the company is much different then what it was ,We now have a good supporting product and we are in the Focus of a one company provider.That is good.WE have billing we have transport we now have the best security and we have a two ended fork in the industry,EQ provider and a Telco Integerator and Sustainable and recurring revenue base that is going to exponentially grow with the market trends and industry.Several more qtrs will show added revs and maybe some added losses,But as the expenditures ease and the infracture is in place those rec revs will far out strip the temporary expenses.Bingo Profit time.
I also have to depart and be a bit speculative here and to the interest that could have possibly been in Franks mind regarding World Com.With the testing and network setup from FL to AZ to Westlake,What does this mean?With WCOM at this time wanting to gain entry into VOIP and never at all giving any hint to any type of process and or Plateform and or tech It makes sense that at the right time FNET is going to be in many many WCOM POPs,Its just a card I believe is still worth more then what can be imagined at this time.
I Have only heard of Rumors of any possible ATT or TCI interest in Vocaltec ,,Asend and BAY as a provider though the interest they have in v is already known to many,Sprint and GTE have expressed interest in some of the smaller eq providers but more in mergers in exsiting isps.Wcom has never said anything about any vendors or have they looked at eq at a distance.
DT on the other hand is looking at going into the US in the biggest possible way as early as 99 and wanting to provide several levels of service.
There is not a thing wrong with insiders selling other then many believe that it is wrong and and the shareholders suffer The thought that insiders sell cause they know the company is not worth that much is ludicrous.It may happen but as we all know its a daily thing to buy and sell,If I owned several mill shares of FTEL and it ran to 10 I'd sell , so would you.
All in all the bashing that recures here in the form of continues negativity is in itself inspiring,IT makes me readdress the actuall progress of the company in the smallest of instances and shows me that the company is indeed moving ahead,That is what matters to me,I believe that as long as we move technically ahead and prepare for the market we will win,If we start selling Three wheeled battery cars in NY I will get out,So I advise VS to chk out BAAT and the hydralic pogo stick and leave the investors in tomorrows technology alone,It was not long ago I remember Him asking If a DVG carries Data,Am I wrong or should we not Humble Him for his inability to understand not only The tech but the History of telcom and tech in general as it pertains to historic industrial revolution.
