From where did you get your IPO shares (if you don't mind my asking--was it offered by one of the online companies?) I just was alerted that it has priced at $12. I think the linux association is worth a 50-100% pop (looking for $25 close). Thanks for your input. E

Also, the information from worldfinancenet is incorrect in one area: EONC introduced its first Linux communication server in 1997 according to a company prospectus. Perhaps the prospectus is saying BCS Technologies introduced its first Linux communication server in 1997, and just listing EONC since it subsequently acquired BCS. Either way, the prospectus says, "eOn was first to market with Linux communications server technology." Hope that helps.

"Strong growth outlook for targeted markets: eOn is targeting two of the highest growth opportunities in the enterprise communications market. The first is the market for customer contact center hardware, software, and services, which is estimated to grow from $10 billion in 1999 to $130 billion in 2002, a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 135%. Similarly, eOn is adapting its current set of voice features and functionality to be loaded onto a PC-based solution, effectively a PC-based PBX switch. The market for such "PCX" solutions is estimated to grow from $100 million in 1999 to $1.4 billion in 2002, a CAGR of 141%. Industry sources estimate that the value of goods and services purchased over the Internet will increase from approximately $50 billion in 1998 to $1.3 trillion in 2003. In general, the means to deliver quality customer service for e-commerce are still being developed. eOn's communications servers enable enterprises to efficiently interact with visitors on the Web sites through voice, e-mail, Web chat and other communications media."
