Tony, check the Warburg Pincus family of funds. I'm in their Japan Small Company and Post Venture Global Funds and wish I were in their Global Communications fund (the latter is more big cap phone companies). Very pleased with Post Venture Global - Japan Small Company is getting beat up right now. Janus Global Tech is almost a good one - but closed to new investors now.

Hey Tony. I agree with the other guy that Janus Global Tech is a great fund, but is closed. The Internet Fund (Kinetics, actually) has come out with a global Net fund:

weighted heavily towards telecomm. The only other fund I can think of is somewhat similar to Janus, it's Dresdner RCM Global Technology, I think its DRGTX, and I think a minimum of $5000, which may be a little high.

The global markets are indeed poised for a lot of pure growth, if that's what you're looking for. I believe you're a fellow INSP holder (btw, good call on HLIT, really great company, the broader markets have finally come to appreciate it), which gives you some int'l exposure. Here's the int'l angle on that stock:

Hey Net, do you know of any mutual funds that specialize in Overseas Internet companies. I'm thinking the big run over there has not happened just yet and it may be time to look in that area. What you think?? Tony
