Please read back my message of yesterday before jumping on me and call it "nothing of interest" and spam. I didn't go into too much details because I thought I can give you some lead and then you can research it yourself. Message 17249529 This company used to have 2 types of products: the CDMA spotlight and GSM spotlight. The CDMA Spotlight is sold primarily in the US and they make money on it. The GSM product is sold in Asia, primarily China. What happens in China is that they don't sell that much (because the Chinese just pretends to buy but not buy anything and they also have a Chinese VP who lied about the sales - he is fired now). In the American continent, sure they only have 3 customers: Verizon, Alltel and Isacell (sp? - the largest operator in Mexico). Verizon used to be GTE, Bell Atlantic and another co., so that's 3 cos combined into one. What has changed is that first of all, they discontinued a product line (GSM) that is not profitable and reduce the work force by 42%. That will help them toward profitability by 3rd, 4th quarter. Secondly, they have the so-called Smartshare product that they partner with a leading tower company - and that's the very big news that is going to be announced. CEO has already told that deal was signed and will be announced before the end of March. How many days are there left until the end of March? Then there are other products: the Integrated System that they partnered with Lucent, the Embedded product that they partnered with Samsung, the Smartcell product that is being field-trial with some leading phone cos. Should I go more and do research for you guys? I read your kind of messages. They said basically "stock XYZ will move because the chart says so". That's more BS than my message and you don't call that hype or spam. Bye.

Check MTWV tomorrow - still time to buy. For those of you who called me spammer, hypester, you better check the news. biz.yahoo.com New SmartShare Solution from Metawave and Crown Castle Expected to Enable Multiple Operators to Share Common Set of Antennas REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 27, 2002--Metawave® Communications Corp. (Nasdaq:MTWV - news), today announced the signing of a supply agreement with Crown Castle International (NYSE:CCI - news) for Metawave's SmartShare(TM) antenna sharing solution. The agreement follows a letter of intent previously announced by Metawave in Q4 2001. Under the terms of the agreement, Metawave will develop and supply SmartShare antenna solutions to support Crown Castle's delivery of advanced shared wireless infrastructure to wireless operators. Testing of the SmartShare system is scheduled to begin in summer 2002 and commercial availability is expected by year-end 2002. As part of the agreement and pending successful completion of the testing, Metawave will deliver up to $15 million of SmartShare systems to Crown Castle. SmartShare, which is designed to support all major air interfaces operating in the cellular, SMR and PCS frequency ranges, will allow up to six wireless operators to share a common set of antenna panels at each cell site. SmartShare provides each wireless service provider with the flexibility to independently optimize antenna patterns to fit their particular needs. Wireless carriers benefit from this arrangement because it will provide them the advantage of a sophisticated antenna system coupled with the economic benefits associated with sharing. ``Crown Castle is taking a leadership role in changing the way the industry looks at shared infrastructure,'' said Bob Hunsberger, Metawave's chairman and chief executive officer. ``This is the first time that an infrastructure sharing product will offer multiple operators the premium position on a tower and simultaneously allow them to independently select antenna patterns that optimize their individual networks.''
