Dave: I had a dream last night and it went something like this! "A consortium of leading Chinese investment firms and telecommunications companies based out of Hong Kong have placed an initial order for the immediate delivery of 200 DVG's at a cost of over $3,000,000. Deployment will begin in Shaghai, where the DVG has been performing impecably in a series of tests against the competition's hardware. Pictured here are representatives from Franklin and Worldcom shaking hands with the Chinese Minister of Commerce at the ceremony which marked the signing of this ground breaking agreement." In my dreams....now if that new PR firm can get the darn thing worded like that, they are worth every penny!!! gggggg just kidding...........gggg__________SirTemp'

David, It would be safe to assume that Ftel's next announcement on expansion of their facilities would be a prelude to sales then. Correct ? Any logical mind would find it impossible for them to ramp up and deliver significant sales in a 40' x 100' building !!! Tom

David, you ask: <<, and yes they outsourced alot of the work. Is there any reason why you would believe that they still don't.>> Franklin's President in his Jan 3, 1997, message stated that Franklin does, indeed, plan to manufacture its products. When I read that it doesn't sound like outsourcing, but who knows. However, there is clearly reason to be confused based on those statements by Franklin. <<The Vision: We envision Franklin building our worldwide communications company to offer products made of proprietary software and hardware . . . . . . Franklin Telecom will design and build the hardware and software. >> The source for this quote can be found in full at: valuespec.com VALUESPEC valuespec.com
