<"Dilution from Certain Transactions. The Company has entered into agreements with Cablevision, Rogers, Shaw and Century pursuant to which the Company has issues warrants to purchase a total of 20,546,936 shares of Series A Common Stock. Under these agreements, warrants to purchase 10,231,298 shares of Series A Common Stock at $0.50 per share and 350,000 shares at $10.50 "> Agreed this is dilution, but what does @Home get in return? Will ATHM get loyal equity partners and access to upgraded cable systems through most of Canada. It sounds like a good business plan to me. As far as dilutions effect on the stock price that is entirely unpredictable. Run your business well and all else will follow. Anyway if you wanted to invest in a boring CO. you would not have put your money in @Home.

Hiram, Just got interested in ATHM . Is my understanding correct that they are an ISP delivering over cable and that they gave stock or warrants to the cable companies to induce them to use their services? I agree that this does have tremendous dilution potential for ATHM but they are also as greedy as you and I and not likely to dump their stock if it causes loss for them. Finally I wonder if this company has outlandish growth evaluation potential like AOL or AMZN. Herb
