How long have you been following ASND? Before the bottom dropped out in the latter part of last year a 4 1/2 point rise in one day was not unusual. In fact I seem to remember a few occasions it rose over 5 in one day.

This year, the best positive day was 3/6 (+2 5/8) and the most negative day was 3/2 (-2 3/8). It has had 8 out of 105 trading days (<10% of the time) where the change was greater than 2 (positive or negative). New market, new year, and I would say the facts support that a stock jumping 10% on a competitors buyout is nothing more than rampant speculation; i.e. not very credible information...

I remembered Sprint endorsed Ascend's GX550 in today's announcement and back in Ascend's October GX550 product announcement. Is Sprint an Ascend ATM customer?

Also, Cisco is the ATM partner in Sprint's rollout of ION? Is Cisco helping Sprint to build a new ATM network?

Thanks,
