Where is Alan Benn?

====================

Jerry Fiddler is actually making some savvy CEO moves with the business model change (high time for customers and WIND), acquisition of Routerware and rescinding the stock buyback. His vision of WIND in the post-pc era and his ability to translate that into the right actions bodes very well for longterm WIND bulls IMO.

In the past, Fiddler didn't want the CEO job himself and the street may not like it in the near term, but I actually like the idea of Fiddler as CEO. Like Steve Jobs, Fiddler is a visionary with the technical insights and leadership skills to focus and enthuse the troops into the right actions.

....just my opinion, fwiw.

BTW, this downgrade from H&Q does not surprise me given their falling out with the CFO in January. This type of rationalization for a downgrade is consistent with the strained relationship.
