elmatador---sounds like LU lost ---one fifth of the contract vs the whole contract --evidently they did handle the previous contract very well or the government would have been satisfied . I still believe the government is making a big mistake because when the next crisis happens ( such as KUWAIT ) there will be major communications issues due to various equipment vendors being incompatible ( hardware or software wise ) . It should have give the contract to one vendor even if it is not LU .
BEST WISHES
BILL

PS ---When will they award the contracts ? By the way I really appreciate your effort on following this and keeping people inform

Did anyone notice that huge buy of around 1.5 million shares at the close? At least I think it was a buy? Can anyone confirm?

WOW,
