I have followed this thread for some time now, but rarely post. Just a quick comment about the bickering and bashing of COMS. I follow the CUBE thread here too, and as far as stock action goes, COMS is alot like CUBE. There was bickering on the Cube thread all last year as Cube dropped from it's highs of $70 down to $18. Recently it came back up to 24. Cube was also valued at about 15-20 times earnings and at times less. Then the upgrades came in and caused the last little rally. They are much like COMS in that new products in the pipeline hold promise. So I am just watching this range that COMS is in and hope to buy in on the next dip. I like this stock and think it will be a sleeper and do well over time. For the short run it may have some bumpy roads. I don't understand this v.90 language on the modems tho..could someone e-mail me about this (or post it here) because I have a USRobotics Sportster Modem (33.6k) that I would like to upgrade to 56k, but my ISP only handles the K56 Flex for the 56k connection. Will the v.90 work?

<By the way, were you a COMS owner before merger?> Joe, I bought coms after the merger. My brilliant research showed that usr was winning the 56k war at that time ..... To make a long story short, I was really screwed up by fundamental analysis, almost never make any money if I based my buying on FA. Whereas almost everytime I buy based on TA I made money. So now I only believe in Technical Analysis - to hell with FA - it's a total waste of time <g>. Mang
