FVCX - interesting item that many will miss & awakens us to possibility of the ISP or other deals for FVCX -->>http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/990901/leitch_tec_2.html

So, we see a phone co adopting it in Canada.

Now, there are rumors on Yahoo that there is a deal with one or more of:
1) QWST - seems most plausible, but poster provides no support
2) CSCO - I have called CSCO to ask about the SVC technology - have not heard back yet
3) GTE - possible, but hope not

In light of the deal in Canada, what about:
a) AT&T - may be too large for FVCX at this time
b) WCOM - in the biz market portion vs residential

I think it would be with a business-oriented marketplace vs consumer marketplace, as such technology likely implemented in commercial mkt first.

Now, we know a lot of options were purchased about a week ago. Reminds me of IMCL when someone bot 780 contracts in a single deal - that was about a week and a half before Individual Investor puts out an article on IMCL and it starts to pick up a little, then about a month later CNBC and IMCL is off to the races.

Now, we know there was a shale out yesterday - this I suggest is either:
a) a co that almost got the amount of shares it wanted, but needed a bit more
b) a new accumulator - someone late to the FVCX story.

Something is definitely up, and based on timing with a few other instances, most notably IMCL, I beleive some news is coming next week. I hope there will be a few announcements to sustain the interest and momentum.

FVCX & Leitch LTV:tse - Leitch I had at its IPO years ago with Jay, the investment banker at research capital - sold way too early - Cdn co's are a pain in the butt as movement much slower and inconsistent with news relative to USA co's
