Hi DiB! EGHT has been a sick puppy lately..........I have been doing some day trading lately......however I held EGHT longer than usual........ I posted this on Dec. 1, 2003 I was in EGHT Friday and had week signals and wanted out but my husband insisted I try the exit strategy that did not work and I sold today at a profit B 5.83 S 6.32 but not what I could have made if I'd sold it when I wanted to. EGHT is really getting some bad raps in the NEWS. ??? I hope you are not in it.....It does not look too good for the short term meaning days or even weeks yet.....long term looks good. Month or Months I mean. As RR mentioned it has a gap some where 3.25 and 4 to fill. Now after saying that I just came back from slumming at yahoo and here is one of their hype post... ************************************************** MOST IMPORTANT POST OF THE WEEK by: pacman328 12/08/03 07:10 pm Msg: 87527 of 87568 Go ahead...trash me if you will. You guys are getting pretty good at it. I told all of you that several folks were at the conference last week in NY. And some of those you want to listen to. Only one person right now is presently following EGHT...that would be Tobin Smith. He is the one who talked to Forbes. He is the one who caused EGHT to run from $3.25 to $8.00. I am the one who told you EGHT would retrace to fill the gap at $4.30...and I am the one here to tell you now...EGHT is going higher from right here...and right now. Why you may ask?? Well, if you are short...I will gladly tell you...because between a dead corpse and a short with your eyes closed...you cannot tell the difference. Toby met with EGHT after the conference and here is the skinny. Toby actually met with SEVERAL of the VoIP players. EGHT will be introducing their VASTLY improved Video Telephone service early in '04. That is VIDEO TELEPHONE folks. And as Toby was told from EGHT officials..."it will blow you away". It will be like Reality Television that is plugged into your home dsl or cable modem or wi-fi network. Additionally, they are going to introduce THIS WEEK....fax service as a part of their Packet 8 service. That is a Press Release introducing their new fax service...and resulting savings for all Pac* subscribers. So, no need for alot of customers to have a second line for fax calls. Additional savings to subscribers?? Another $10-$12 per month or more. The thing that is so unique about EGHT compared to all the other VoIP providers is that they make and own ALL..that is ALL of their own equipment. They have an individual compression tech that allows you to be on-line and on the phone without having the lag or distortion from everybody else. He notes that he can access his VM anywhere...and do a television quality line feed from anywhere in the world through his Pac 8 service...and it is perfect. Another analyst noted his pure excitement at what EGHT is doing. That is ANOTHER ANALYST...which means BUY RATING people. (That is for the mentally challenged...which appear to be many here). They will never have any billing issues...NEVER...everything bills through VISA. This takes all the cost out of running a phone network. There is no billing...no collections...no customer service to staff about billing errors. Finally, Toby attended the FCC meeting. And it was perfectly clear that the Feds are not going to do ANYTHING to mess this up. It became obvious that what EGHT is doing is like have a locomotive in the 1850's. And businesses worldwide are going to want to include a service just like what EGHT is offering to add VALUE to any offering they have....most, in ways nobody has even thought of yet. Go ahead idiots...short here...I dare ya. ***************************************************** dealie
