--> CEO in his prime to trade Good point. Think about the message he is sending to all the folks he is empowering with their own options. Obviously, most of those that have been granted over the last 5 years are now barely swimming. The young up and coming engineers can't be cheerful about their option grants, except those from 2008, I guess. If April is the date, here's the rough strikes: 2001 $22 2002 $15 2003 $16 2004 $32 2005 $34 2006 $52 2007 $42 2008 $42 2009 $41 2010 ??? During the years of power transition, April was a lucrative granting period but not been as good since the Nokia schlit hit the fan in '06. Presure may be coming from numerous sides and it look like $84 may be in the cards at some point down the road. At split at that level get's us right back into the price range all have just come to luv. The options that are now being sold (whenever the price rises above the forty-five dollar Keitel level) are those that were granted during the changing of the guard (ie 2001 - 2003). Then there are all those who no longer even need to file with the SEC as to the disposition of the equity to which they were endowed.
