Hi ibexx. How are you doing? JNPR is performing nicely since my entry at 9.95 and 10. Doesn't it feel good to be on the same side of the trade as me? Thus far, we're up 27% in the three days of my entry. FWIW, I currently do not have a price objective in mind. I'm thinking of raising my stop on the half position from 9.80$ to maybe 10.8. I'm also contemplating putting in an order to buy s ome more if we can dip to the 11-11.2 area(looking for a quick fill the gap retracement). Unless this is a head fake(reason for my stops) we may be entering a "buy the dip" scenario for JNPR right now. If we can get the volume to pick up with the current trend and the rest of the market co-operates, I see 16 as very doable. I realize that is of little consolstion for those that have been long for quite some time, but you have to start some where. I'm not current on what portion of market share they are gaining, but if they can meet earnings and give some optimistic guidance, we have a good opportunity of hitting 22(which would be a sweet 100%+ profit from my entry. At any rate, I just feel good about my recent purchase and wanted to share a few thoughts with you. P.S. If you still have me on ignore, I guess this post is for not save my own gratification. Or perhaps there are some who do not ignore me and I would like the idea of me helping others make gains in such an uncertain enviroment, PPS. To anyone who doesn't have me on ignore, I strongly suggest you consider the pros and cons of "investing" with the current world events. If you go long, keep stops within your max pain tollerance, and please, please never use margin for Long term investments until the future becomes clearer. On the down side, I still have a pessimistic view that we are in a strong beasr market that can very well take 5-7 years to work ourselves through. But than again(and as unfortunate as it is) war changes everthing. Good luck.

Fusion Communications Calls on Juniper Networks to Deliver Japan's First Full-scale VoIP Service Juniper Networks M-series Routers Enable Intelligent IP Voice and Data Services Over Fusion's First-class IP Network Sunnyvale, CA - September 25, 2001 - Juniper Networks, Inc. (Nasdaq: JNPR), a leading provider of next-generation Internet Protocol (IP) infrastructure systems, today announced that Fusion Communications Corp., one of Japan's largest service providers and a pioneer in full-scale voice over IP (VoIP) services in Japan, has selected Juniper Networks M-series Internet routers for its IP network. Yoshiaki Hirayama, general manager of Fusion Communications' Network Engineering division said, "We were seeking to become the most innovative provider of IP services while maintaining network performance. Juniper Networks offered us routing hardware and software with superior capabilities to differentiate our IP services from those of our competitors. To offer these services today and provide cost of ownership advantages going forward, we selected Juniper Networks routers for their speed, stability, cost effectiveness, and ability to deliver reliable, high-quality services to our business customers. No other routing systems come close to matching the capabilities offered by Juniper Networks." In assessing Juniper Networks M-series family of routers, Hirayama also said, "They deliver voice with no delay, and we are impressed with their high level of data performance while supporting multiple applications. We haven't experienced a single hiccup since they started operation. They are easy to operate and are really the perfect routers for both voice and data services." Fusion Communications established itself as a pioneer in VoIP by establishing a flat rate (20 Japanese Yen) for three minutes for both local and long distance calls, 24 hours a day. Until then, the established practice was to charge progressively higher fees for increasingly longer distance calls. Fusion Communications' VoIP service offers extremely high quality, and the number of subscribers has been steadily rising since VoIP was launched in April 2001. Fusion Communications' IP network connects Osaka to Shinjuku, Tokyo at a line rate of 2.5 Gigabits per second (OC-48c/STM-16). This high-speed backbone connects to another access point in Otemachi, Tokyo's main business center, which is also inter-network access point (IX) capable. Each of the company's 18 access points employs a set of redundant routers to ensure network availability for peak traffic loads, scalability for new customer demands and additional security. Fusion's network extensibility is possible through the broad deployment of Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS). MPLS helps Fusion deliver numerous intelligent services including VoIP, secure IP Virtual Private Networks (VPNs), and traffic engineering assistance for Internet access and data centers. About Fusion Communications Fusion Communications Corp. (headquartered in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, President Tadahisa Tsunoda) is a pioneer in offering full-scale Voice over IP (VoIP) service in Japan. Established in March 2000, the company started offering VoIP services in April 2001, and its aim is to offer a variety of services at low prices by combining network resources for voice communications, data communications and Internet services. It also plans to integrate these capabilities in order to launch additional new services. Ibexx
