Just a little "Speculation"

11 mil!!! & counting no more. Sounds good to me. Let's see, approximately 3 mil. Zips this qtr. Tie ratio of 5 at $4 disc profit. Approx. 137 mil. shares = $.4379 earnings.

Am I close? Remember, the costs of probably a million of those Zips, TV comms., COMDEX, etc., were accounted for last qtr.

Are we looking at a "Blowout", with a breakout soon to follow?

If I were a "Shortie" on this one, I might consider cutting my losses, backing up the truck, doubleing down and enjoying the "Long Ride"

Long on IOM

A few things:
1) Slowdown in shipments to me means that yeah, they stuffed the channel a lot and the channel is pushing back.

2) As far as Jaz2 being vaporware, I don't care if it comes out tomorrow. I don't believe sales on Jaz2 will be meaningful, and I suspect that most of the bulls here agree. The game is about the zip, not the Jaz and certainly not the Jaz2.
