When Dell split 5 times over the past 4 years/ I doubt that they had a BAD April. And in case you forgot/ Motorola's fumble concerning their wireless equipt.orders may END up on the desk of LUCENT to sign. I do believe that as we move through March ,we could see some carryover into April as Internet Telephony begins to heat up . For March , I expect to hear Good Things in the area of New Orders from PrimeCo<Bell Atl.,US West,AirTouch> and maybe even from Sprint and those TWO Japanese Companies . Then as APRIL approaches the Internet Telephony Fever kicks in gear. THis is why I believe that we "might not" see a OFF month in April.

Hey Ibexx Man o man, do I get depressed when LU drops off o bit. "NOT" To be frank with you/ LUCENT is the first stock that I have invested in-where I can sleep soundly at nights without worry. So if it has its little dips here and there -- no problem. After all I am in this for Long term and a little PULL-BACK could motivate myself and others to BUY MORE LUCENT. Lets face it// at over 105 dollars a pop/ LUCENT may seem to be a little too rich for some peoples blood. I myself will go on record as stating that LU is the MOST Expensive stock that I have ever invested in. THis is why I am interested in MAYBE trying the OPTION route for LUCENT since I might be able to get a little more action for my remaining side-money than with LUCENT stock. YES I am in at 101.per share BUT even I admit that LU is a little too rich for my blood. Have you ever tried the IOPTION route with Lucent ??? In your opinion what would be the BEST OPTION to HOLD. March Calls /April <I know you do not prefer them>CALLS ? I know that you are more familiar with LUCENT than I - so your advise is greatly appreciated. Thanks for any insight you may supply.
