David A.: I agree, you never can tell; especially with the "outside" world in a turmoil and the perpetual presence of 7% ignorant folks making wild card decisions on whether to buy or sell. But, IOM is still THE current leader and its future is NOT just vaporware! "... the race does not always go to the swift, but that is the way to bet." In some technological aspects, IOM may not be the best, but it is still leading the pack and consistantly increasing its lead; both in marketshare and (with the Clik!) evolution. Fluctuations or not, I believe this is a strong horse with a good map of the track. As you do, I hope it gets the opportunity to live up to its potential without any more precipitous drops.

<<<Remember the last split, IOMG didn't run until 3 or 4 days before the actual split. I certainly am not trying to pretend that I think we will get a similar run, just pointing out history. For all I know, it will continue down. Hope not! :)>>> I really don't think the split will have much effect on the price, but I think as we get closer to the earnings report the PE will rise to about the 40 area based on the expected 4 qtr trailing earnings. We are only a little more than one month before earnings report so this rise might appear to be because of the split. All my opinion, of course. JW
