My favorite options play has been out-of-money LEAPS calls on stocks which are steady gainers (made a heap of $$$ with Airtouch/Vodafone and CSCO) where volatility is low and premium relatively reasonable

This is interesting, as I know taxman, who often posts on the MSFT thread, favors this as his main strategy. And has done quite well with it!

Ah, out of money LEAPs on Cisco. How my heart sings. Those have been wonderful.
