Thanks to all who fought for this site. Jill the Webmistress must be knocking down the overtime as she counts the posts. Well done, laddies and ladies, well done.

Raleigh, are you aware of ATT's announcement today? They now have plans to enter internet telephony- starting in late 1998. Any thoughts on that? Isn't this one of the big elephants I just predicted would be entering?

<<AT&T To Cut Up to 18,000 Jobs

By DAVID E. KALISH

NEW YORK (AP) - Hired three months ago to turn around AT&T, chairman C. Michael Armstrong on Monday detailed a cost-cutting drive to slash up to 18,000 jobs, freeze executive salaries and shake up management.

. . . The nation's largest telecommunications company plans to boost its capacity to carry Internet and data traffic, offer telephone service across the Internet and sell a new type of mobile-phone service . . .

AT&T also said it is testing a new plan to enable people to make phone calls across the Internet for up to 9 cents per minute between states. The company will start offering the option to customers in the second half of the year.

It also plans to win more mobile-phone business by providing customers with phones with battery lives of 100 hours this spring and 200 hours by year's end.

In addition, the company unveiled a calling plan in which the mobile-phone caller would pay for the call - just like land-based phone service - instead of the current practice of charging the person receiving the call . . .>>

The price sounds high for ATT's service. I wonder what FTEL would charge?

RB, as usual, well said.....................
I am normally a lurker, but a loyal investor in FTEL, I really appreciate your input. I look for it. I'm in for the duration, I believe also, and I've only been an investor for about a year, but I am an accountant and I like what I see. Not that it would change my position, but any short-term forecasts. (I promise I won't hold it against you) LOL! I know that no one knows for sure. I may buy more tomorrow. Good luck to us all. Back to lurking. :) :) :)
