Hi Paul, thanks for stopping by & sharing the info. Pretty amazing that this is your first visit here. Welcome! Many things have changed since 1996.

<Aware is riding on the DSL-Lite announcements coming out of Dell, CPQ and Intel.>

Among many others. ADI looks pretty savvy now days.

<No one here mentioned the article at Inter@ctive Investor a few days a go that cited WSTL as one of the stocks to buy and hold for 1999.>

Can't help but wonder if thats a common sense call or have they figured the "convertible preferred deal" Dr. Tech spoke of.

<It said that now that the Internet Stocks are ready to crash and burn it is time to buy the laggards that are about to start making news.>

Yeah, Ive read that in more than one place myself excluding SI.
Even Cnn TV this week spoke of this as well.

<Also -- late session buying on Thursday coincided with BELs announcement of AIRTouch acquire. Looks like people with a nose for news caught on that Westell is a great takeover candidate for BEL (or LU of course).>

Im not counting on it but I can speak from experience in that you gotta own It to capitalize if happens.

<but I've been watching DSL for years (wrote the very first post and article for SI about Amati in 1996)>

Hey, we will have to use you as an indicator. ggg Seriously, if you or Mike have the link handy now might be a good time to post it.

<and you guys need to watch what is happening a little more carefully.>

Paul, Ill be quite honest with you. While there is no way that I have the expertise, I couldn't possibly retain everything. Ive read every Wstl & Amati post & even some that are missing. Ive stopped watching Wstl as I don't feel I have the need any more. Besides theres still a pretty good amount of brainpower left on Wstl's thread here. Just not much positive to talk about. Even some of the folks who have taken huge losses still drop in w/ technical help. The only thing I watch for now is a competitive change & as I stated their have been more than a few. Pairgain's Dslam looks pretty good as a mild example. The rest is for pure enjoyment even though I get aggravated with Wstl's shenanigan's sometimes & thats only an opinion.

<I feel this stock could garner a lot of attention very soon, especially as a takeover candidate.>

I agree about the attention, maybe Awre will run to 50 :} & if a buyout happens then that wouldn't hurt me but probably some others.

<Maybe it's time to visit other boards and get the word out.>

I run a SI search from time to time & wstl is played when there is a technical break out but they always take profits as would I. Post um when you find em Paul & Ill assure you others will as well.
