Anyone worried that there will be 334 million shares outstanding? Given a market cap similar to to ONIS of 10 billion that gives a share price of $29. IPO price is in $13 range.

>>do you have a url for that mention?<< Unless there is another Technology Review, this should be it...but I don't see Corvis mentioned here "The Microphotonics Revolution" >>Get ready for optical switching in the telecommunications network backbone, then an all-optical Internet, and finally optical integrated circuits. The amount of data we can get almost anywhere will skyrocket.<< techreview.com

I see that the URL was posted. However, I have the print version; a sidebar, entitled Dialing for Dollars, mentions the Big 5 plus Corvis. It says this: "If one of the establoished heavy hitters in telecom fails to dominate this market, several startup wait in the wings. Among them is Columbia, Md.-based Corvis. Founded in 1997 by David Huber (who earlier started Ciena, a company that struck it rich pioneering DWDM), Corvis has raised $300 million from some of the top venture capital firms. By eliminating the slowdowns when optical signals are converted to electrons and back to photons and providing ultra-long optical transmission without electronic regeneration, Corvis just might be one of the winners in the race for the all-optical internet." - Neil Savage A chart below that sidebar says this about Corvis: Corvis Recent Moves -- Testing its all-optical devices with Broadwing Communications Strategy -- Leverage technology for ultra-long optical transmission and optical switching to provide an all-optical network. Your input would be most appreciated.
