Exactly. I just wish Newbridge was better able to communicate their strengths or that the investment community was better able to listen.

What would you like? A full page ad in the Wall Street Journal depicting secure, reliable performance from 36170 based networks.

I believe Volvo tried that after Diana's Benz hit the concrete abutment; and was forced to apologize within hours.

In time, the customers will better know what the options and risks are. Hopefully, NN's marketing folk can speed up that process.

On the other hand, NN has consistently missed their numbers and what they say technically gets discounted.

Sad but true. With consistency and the ability to grow the bottom line as well as the top, Street sentiment will change. I look forward to the day when NN's chart looks like Cisco's or Intel's. And to when CNBC broadcasters throw out comments like, "Today technology leaders Lucent, Nortel and Newbridge led the way yet again . . ."
