What do you think about the two new contracts to SPCT received from Nortel on 10/16? Don't you think this will be positive for future growth?

Also, I came across an interesting message on the fool:

Hey Fools,
I don't have anything invested in Spectrian but there's a reason: someone v-e-r-y near to me did their audit. Conflict of interest rules sez that she/we can't invest in ANY company that her firm is involved in...fair enough. If I could've, I would've short sold them in a big way. But I can talk to you since I'm just a fool, right?
Spectrian is in sort of a bad way. Throughout the 3rd quarter audit, revenue 'mistakes' were discovered, big enough ones that I think (I'm just a puppet, she pulls the strings) somebody in management cashed in a buttload of warrants- hence that double-digit share value drop a coupla weeks ago.
Additionally, we would all like to think that their ISO-9001 status would guarantee standardized chips, right? In some instances, it hasn't happened that way. One of their biggest clients is in Asia and a large, read LARGE shipment was returned due to manufacturing defects.
Take what I say with a grain- I am relatively novice to investing. Just thought y'all would like to know...

Anyone else hear this????
Seems like this could be the bad news????

Thanks,

JD
