If history serves as any guage, might make some sense to wait till after HJ talks the stock down later today<g>. Honestly, I expect an AOL announcement, but suspect it might not live up to the promised hype. I sincerely believe the leak was engineered to raise the stock price for negotiating purposes. Probably pissed off potential aquirers. Wouldn't surprise me if they somehow killed the deal, as they seem to have a hard time trying to play in the big leagues. We have to remember AOL only paid $3.00 a share for the 5% they own. Why would they want to pay much more now? It's not like there aren't a lot of other alternatives. We also have the concerns of more game playing come earnings. I have to give the stock this...IDTC has mangaged to double in the year I've been following. Kicking and screaming all the way, but it has doubled. sf
