Roger, I think what we have here is some internet speculation plays bigtime. All a co., has to do is say it is now going to market over the web, and boom , different higher multiple. I've been playing the trends here. Got in IFLYW, watched it all last week from 3. Now 9 1/2(thats IFLY common), the warrants have more than doubled (almost tripled today). also KTEL + 6 today to 12 has doubled on word they are now an internet co. Until this calms down, play the trend.

Roger--I have been following LEAP for several days.
The Yahoo threads are very illuminating as to why the run up. There is a group of hypesters in full cry over there. A couple appear to be pros. The thread is a mixture of hype, wide eyed innocence, and mean attacks on anyone not utterly bullish or questioning why the company should be up.
LEAP released a news release today saying they didn't know why the run up. I have held off pulling the trigger at this time. I would start small myself. This one is well hyped.
Interestingly the hypesters are justifying big price gains because Yahoo, THNK, and other internets are up therefore this one should be.
All the Best

LEAP:FWIW Briefing.com reports that the Nike rumor is just that. Maybe like Colin Powell joining the board of ZITL.

Best Wishes,
