Nancy, I bought Dish in Sept 1997 in the 30 months (2 and 1/2 years) since then until now, DISH has split twice 2 for 1. This means that I now own 4 times the shares and each of the split shares is currently selling at $130+. Or put another way each of my original shares is worth $520+. My profit on DISH so far in the 30 months is $502 dollars per share which equal 2,788 % or 27.88 times my original investment. Perhaps, if you can, you might consider holding DISH way beyond the split on March 22 regardless of whether it goes up or down in the meantime. DISH is just beginning to exploit a rapidly expanding market for satellite delivery of digital broadband (consumer and e_commerce b2b point to point or multipoint). Regards, Gerry
