Tuck,

Next qtr's sales figures will undoubtedly be entered as exhibit A in the short's case against BTIM. Seeing as how the product will have just hit the street and the pipeline just opened for consumption there is no doubt in my mind that sales will be weak.

Now, let me remind you that I am long and I am not expecting much at all in the quarter in which rollout begins. Who in their right mind would look for 0-300 mph acceleration in .1 seconds? It will take a while for an accurate gauge to develop on Hextend's actual sales but that will not stop the shorts from heralding triumph when the first sales figures are out. At this point in time I think nobody has any real solid idea on the topic.

Jim
