Rick, A tracking stock involves a couple leaps of faith relating to the parent's integrity, the underlying business and the capital needs, etc. Sprint PCS meets the test, at least prior to the WCOM merger. The AWE tracker doesn't even come close. Coots

the Sprint PCS tracker way outperformed the Sprint longdistance business its PCS stock has been much stronger than FON tracker builds like components to a corporation it carries debt and secondary issuance implications wouldnt you prefer Nabisco to RJReynolds? Nabisco has a millstone around its neck if IBM had an Internet Service tracker, it would zoom if QCOM last year had a Handset Division tracker, it would have wilted if INTC were to set up a Wireless Chip tracker, it would outperform the PC/NIC business makes perfect sense / jim

Diamond --The theory is that you are getting a piece of the fastest growing part of the company ( in this case TDMA ). Another interesting note on IPO'S for this year 2000 ---almost half are well below the issue price while the other 50% is up a collective 1% for the year 2000 . Would not touch this issue with a ten foot pole ! BEST WISHES BILL
