Lemur...I'm sure you will have ample time to average down. This is a long term play. Rember, 3.5 mil shares were bought a lot higher than 44! They are in for the long haul I'm sure. ORBI is having a hard time sustaining the price rise, IMO, because of competing news on other companies(IRIDF for ex.). MOT is well known...much more name recognition than ORBI. ORBI isn't the only game in town. True, there aren't alot of players, but speaking as a semi-ignorant investor, IRIDF news of lining up all those service agreements in other countries seemed pretty impressive. Maybe that doesn't mean anything as far as ORBI's performance or business plan...but it helped kick the stock down a few pegs... That's why I like this thread...lot's of good evaluation and analysis will only help. Hey, if MOT & IRIDF turn out to be the MSFT of satellites and ORBI the APPL then I want to know it. Conversely, if ORBI is the MSFT then i sure want to know that,too.<<G>>
