Since Divi deal was announced (10/99), the number of HLIT shares short has increased more than tenfold. How many of these are value-conscious CUBE owners wanting to play CUBE semi only? When deal goes through, their short position will be covered when they receive their HLIT shares. Will other CUBE owners dump some HLIT at that point to reallocate money into the new CUBE? Does HLIT take a temporary hit at that point? Anyone have a feel for this?

What is everyone else going to do with their HLIT shares? I haven't decided yet--but I'll probably keep some and sell some. It's a nice problem to have, but for the first time as a CUBE owner (about 3 years), I don't know what to do!
