Although I doubt this company will be called Leap Wireless by then.

Isn't there some sort of restriction in place around the spectrum LWIN bought through the auctions that prevents it from being bought by larger players? Or if these ever existed are they now over?

Seems we have $7.5 strike options now! Bought 100 contracts of the July 02 $7.5 calls

pcstel:

Well, those calls will soon be at par value. Better be some rumors of buyout coming soon, 'cause I don't see a bottom here. Maybe time to go over to yahoo and speculate on buyout possibilities.

PCS-

Yes, LWIN looks tempting at these levels;

BTW, in reviewing LWIN call action today, CBOE showing total volume for Jul 02 (strike 7.50) calls at 51 contracts; Curious if you got your 100 via a different exchange, and if so what price advantage that may offer.

TIA
