[Misreading the press]

Terry --

I misread the release, too. Even so, I have to speculate on the events leading up to Zionts being named CEO of Westell, Inc., and Robert Faw being given walking papers --- or choosing to leave, such as the case may be.

When I read the release announcing Seamans' leave of absence, there's no mention of Zionts in the executive "interim council."

westell.com

<<<As an interim measure, Westell has established an Office of the Chairman, which includes Mr. Gaynor, together with Rob Faw, CEO of Westell, Inc. and J. Nelson, President of Westell, Inc. >>

Clearly, there's been a shift of power and I will be extremely surprised if there's not more to come.

And to be honest, I'm glad Zionts wasn't named CEO of Westell Technologies, not because I don't think he can do the job. If they're planning a change at the top, I think they need an outsider with a name for turning companies around.

Just my take.
