Ken: Thank you, I'll forget about the dart throwing, watch and listen. I like your analysis, concise and to the point. But, where does the 50ma come in. Is Nextel powered by 50 micro amps?<VBG> I always thought Nextel was powered by McCaw's clout and money. I remember seeing McCaw enter a meeting with the board administrators of the S&P 500, he left the meeting much lighter and the others left with their pockets buldging with paper. (100's and stock options.)<BG> (Please correct the spelling as you read, just sound out the words.<VBG>) The market amazes me, some shell companies trade in the 90's and are worth more than Nextel on paper, yet operate out of a PO Box or rent office space. Nextel has property, plant, equipment, and a future. One would think that a company like this would zoom right to the top. Again thanks for the info Ken, perhaps I'll gamble and wait, next week should tell the tale. Regards Al G., a little tail never hurt anyone.

I hadn't read this post by Ken, Al, when I made my last post (promise). Ken refers to that other racquet sport that I love, using words like 'no man's land'. The finest Tennis players in the world can fire hard topspin shots (with ultra-modern graphite racquets) from the mid-court, defying definitions such as this. Look for NXTL, who has accumulated vast assets on the cheap, to analogously defy technical analyses of folks like Ken, Ed, etc. This story is in its initial phases. Mike ........preparing to observe Nextel fire hard from midcourt before taking the net.
