SMOP'in Up Jim, thanks again for the tip several months back. I tried to buy some shares about a week ago just north of 3, but got a little greedy trying to buy at the bid, and my day order expired unfilled. Nevertheless, I was still able to establish a nice position this afternoon post-announcement. Good thing I was watching when ldo posted the news! <g> I still find it hard to believe that it only closed at $4. That's an 18% arbitrage spread post-announcement. I suspect the pending holiday kept volume low and contributed to the market inefficiency, at least with respect to this particular announcement. Enjoy the Christmas turkey! Razor
