Joey, I'm not sure whther or not it was. Was .66 including or excluding .09. And the forward looking statement, while better, weren't great IMHO.. they were more like "It MIGHT get a LITTLE bit better in Q3". Steve

$.09 due to acquisition charge. Was this accounted for in the $.68 estimate. No, so the actual gross is 0.66 + 0.09 (0.75) which beats 0.68. It will be interesting to see if the press stresses this as a positive or a negative. So far, CNBC seems to be saying earnings are discouraging. Based on the forward statements and the current stock price, I don't think so but that's just my opinion. Could have been much worse as 2Q is the slowest quarter of the year...
