Sue, I think if you can check time and sales you'll find that the trade(s) that had it close at the ask were tiny trades. I saw a 100, and a 1000 at the end. Looks better to close there than at the bid, which was the lowest price since the opening. Know what I mean? On the Yahoo board there are some "knowledgeable" posters questioning how much good news it might really be. Especially with the price not holding. It sounds like NTN got no better revenue than they've been getting. You never know with NTHN because they instantly go into spin mode. Like the IWN announcement. "It's so good, we're giving it away". I'm starting to think that the reason Accounts Receivable went up so much and was blamed partly on AOL, is because NTN is booking AOL revenue at the old rate, because no new contract was signed, and AOL has been paying at the new rate, which they dictated to NTN. Which means the A/R increase, which Sokol defended as being from "good payers" like AOL, will actually need to be written off. We'll see. Their news, just like the CC's never work out exactly as advertised. Dwight (Legal Disclaimer--my opinions, not investment advice)
