Did anyone see the action on CFON today? I know several regulars on this thread made a pile of money on this one today. Congrats to all. I see a lot of similarities between FTEL & CFON. Both are small companies up against the giants. Both have made affiliations with major players (WCOM ,GTE etc. for FTEL, MCI, Radio Shack for CFON), and most importantly both have built the highest quality components that are available. As the cliche goes build a better mousetrap, and they will beat a path to your door. CFON up 246% today, and it happened so fast that if you blinked you missed it. The same will happen for FTEL. If you remember the reason you bought this company, (no it wasn't the stock price), sit back & relax. Our day is just around the corner. And if you think you're smart enough figure the exact moment that FTEL will shoot up , you're a fool. Oh well, back to lurking.I've used up my one post a year. However let me say that I've been long FTEL since the old prodigy days and am more confident in my investment than ever. By the way- "Temp" if you are reading this you still owe me 50 shares of FTEL from an old stock picking contest (CFON was the pick) from about 3 or so years ago (GGGG) Tom

Gunther, I agree that dueling with VS is wasted motion. However, I couldn't let your comment about a NASDAQ "broken promise" go unchallenged. A lot of "information" on this board is second and third-hand. Like the old campfire game of "rumor" or "gossip," the story can go through several permutations. The statements of NASDAQ provisional status within a week to 10 days did not come to this board directly from the company; the only thing we have that is directly from the company is in either the Prez's message or Tom Russell's (can't remember which), and says several weeks and makes no predictions or guarantees. JMHO, but I think one has to take any statements on this board attributed directly or by innuendo to the company with a healthy dose of skepticism, and with an eye toward the messenger's past track record.
