IMO, VNWK prospects are very exciting. I've sold Frame Relay since its inception, employed by one of the big three LD carriers. [owned stock in Stratacom when it was unknown] Our Frame Relay customer's are extremely interested in the features and capabilities of the Visual UpTime system. Watch this stock carefully. All of the carriers are working on developing "service" offerings that will incorporate this gear in the cloud. VNWK will provide a customer a significant advantage to managing the WAN, especially the high percentage of troubles that occur on the access loop into the network. As part of the carrier's service, the customer will not own the capital, but subscribe to various service levels as managed by the carrier.

The fact that VNWK has signed up all big three LD carriers and several LECs is significant. The combined customer base of this market is huge, offering VNWK the potential for exponential growth. As an aside, I do not believe in buying stocks following the IPO ... but made the exception with VNWK. Again, my opinion only, but betting heavily that this stock will explode. Good luck.
