RE:<< Yes, other then it will give them more currency, their shares, to use for acquisitions.>>

Right, but they would have twice as many shares at half the price, so the "currency" would have the same value. If they were issuing NEW shares, that would give them more currency value to make acquisitions. A split doesn't really accomplish this.
