ALL: Copied this paragraph from the EE article DATA NETWORKS. READ the LATEST S1 Does Franklin ADDRESS this !!!!! BIG TIME. Today, the rationale for private networks is based on the ever-increasing need to transmit graphical data.Private voice networks have been replaced by virtual private networks and data requirements are now the prime driver for the private network of the 1990s. As a result, today's corporate network managers, faced with large and ever-growing data networks, must find ways to put their excess bandwidth to work for them. Transmitting voice and fax over packet-data networks is one way to maximize the already existing bandwidth resource that is available. TEMPEST says it all Neil W

S "sick of the hypers" T ..I think if you read the presidents message STyou may start to understand that a bird in the hand is yada yada yada. Some of the programs you listed are indeed scraped and maybe in time all will be. It is obvious by what is written that all focus now is on FNET and DVG production. You as the investor must decide if they are a player or an also ran As for hypers we are strong believers in what we have learned about this company. We fill in the gaps and read between the lines but we also as a group try to keep a level head. Are you a holder of this stock ST? Seth

ST, didn't you know? Only positive upbeat comments are allowed here!! No comments or questions about that which may upset anyone!!!! I think you as well as anyone here has the right to post anything they please that is of earnest interest whether it be comments or questions that are legit. I assure you that others wonder the same thing you do as well as myself, a lot here are just afraid to because of the rude response you received. Don't worry, I got a rude response from the same person also once. Keep your questions coming. I see no deceit in them whatsoever. I think all of us are concerned as of late. Chris

STT, About GlobalCom, I think this will be addressed shortly. The evaluation period is almost or maybe already over with. We will know shortly. These things take time. RE: Evaporized The big picture at Franklin over the past few years has been to introduce a portfolio products for the digital age. The main ones have always been the Channel Bank, Cyclone, Tornado, and the DVG. These were all part of a long term master plan, and most of the items you mention were SERVICES that I believe Frank created to give the compnay cash flow to develop the "BIG PICTURE" products. Some flat out failed while others are now taking a back seat because the "big boy" of their product line, the dvg, is out of development and into the deployment stage. In an ever changing tech world, Franklin has to turn all of its energy to it best product in order to take advantage of the opportubities they now have in front of them. I believe that other products and some of the services you eluded to will "get noticed" as a result of the dvg. No hype here STT, its dvg or death. Now or never imo. If its a succss than so will our investments, and if not vice versa. If you don't see numerous or sizeable contracts over the next few months, then run for the exits. I have a sizable bet that Frank and Co will succeed, what about you? dh
