Hi NHP, I believe, the fully diluted earnings are reflected in the eps of 29 cents since the conversion price has been way below market price. So there is no reason to dilute the earnings further to 24 cents. The current share price has already discounted the extra shares. The basic earnings last Q was 33 cents. Please correct me if I am wrong. -Pam

NHP, The convertible never made sense to me. I wonder if a bit of panic was what pushed it forward, or perhaps covenants required by Toshiba to insure the cost for the FlashVision expansion were being met. Either way, the convertibles lead to share dilution and afforded relatively little cash. Message 16812178 Saw 3 new products at BestBuy this week. miniSD and transflash cards are there.
