If LWIN can offer 3G CDMA2000 internet service over its allocated spectrum. The stock will fly.

Also, LWIN is the only public company eligible under FCC rules to acquire other "designated entities" that won spectrum in the recent auction.

My feeling: sometimes a zeigeist is formed wherein everybody suddenly agrees about something. Last summer it was "fiber glut", and all of a sudden out of nowhere LVLT, GBLX, MFNX, QWST, high flyers all, were brutally cut to shreds in a number of weeks.

Now it's upside mania over wireless. Sprint got bought up solely for PCS; the new zeitgeist is the "one stop solution" where every phone company must have every solution: look at the NXTL price rise; rumors about what wireless co. GBLX is gonna gobble up; Mannesman's buying Orange; somebody may be eyeing Vodaphone...

just takeover fever in the whole segment is my 2 cents.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
