<AMAT> Estimates raised today: Suspicious though. Why now and not right after earnings announcement a while back?

Jaime, I believe that a book-to-bill came out better than expected on Friday. Is this a different book-to-bill than previously announced?
From Briefing.com:
14:24 ET Book-To-Bill Ratio: Front end bookings rose 34% from October. Overall book-to-bill ratio rose to 0.84 from October level of 0.75. Needham & Co reiterates its "buy" ratings on AMAT, NVLS and ASTX. Believes that earnings growth will recover much faster than expected. Anticipates raising Q1 FY99 estimates on AMAT at a minimum.
