Ariella, I don't post a lot for the simple reason that I also think there way to many empty posts to wade thru and do not wish to add to these. But I want to thank you for the excellent posts that you have submitted to date. I did notice your post, although it has screwed up my Saturday morning following the research (had planned other endeavors). {:>) LOL The comparisons you presented helps to add to the knowledge base on which educated decisions can be made. This beats hype any day. Any one considering your posts negative to-date needs to get their head out of the sand. Please don't let a few short sighted posters prevent you from sharing such valuable insight. There are many here that I have learned from, each presenting views from different perspectives that all add up to a greater value. Your analyst experience can be invaluable. I look forward to your future input so don't let a few intimidate you. Back to lurking.

I think what most people focus on is the exploding market that the internet & intranet will be--if you believe what is forecast. If FNTN can get a foothold into this market--less than 1%--what does that mean? I don't think the stock will explode overnight such as PNLK, but over the long run--it may have potential to be a good buy, especially if bought for $.60. As far as the posts--it has been difficult to get any info. about the company--so there has been alot of conjecture and discussion to guess what is up. And, once in awhile, we get first hand investigative reports from Tomato Man or someone gets a email from a third party (Siemens representative) that is somewhat reassuring (I wasn't completely sure that this company was not a scam until June) I like your analysis. Based on the old press releases and your understanding of markets, what do you think FNTN's capitalization will be in a couple of years if it does capture a decent percentage of the business that it is aiming for? As to the hype on this thread, it couldn't be anything but. The company will not be fully operational until August--and this has been reported numerous times. If we had numbers from the company, don't you suspect that the post would be totally different (Hello?). If it is bothersome, wait after August to read the posts--'cause it ain't going to be nothing but hype and jive. Also--I think alot of energy was used to determine if the company was for real--we all understand the potential market it is in.

Ariella, Another thank you for your posts. As a holder of this stock for several months, and not a techie, I accumulated it at considerably lower prices, based on management personnel (Fidelity contact), Siemans entrance into the picture, and the hoped for revenues on a concept for which I personally have little understanding. As I have viewed this BB market over the past several months, I have determined that a discipline of taking some profits off the table is for me a better risk reward strategy, then just holding through all the fluctuations, P&D, daytrading and the like. Any information on a stock, or the general arena of which a stock I hold is situated, I greatly appreciate, even though some, if not all of the articles, go right by me. The charts are helpful in viewing the various companies, and since in this new internet stock world, where companies can have negative, or merely projected earnings and can command unbelievable prices, it is hard to get a handle on reality here. Keep on posting. When the tried and true bashers arrive here, then our patience will be truly tested. Mike

Ariella, The label I place on your post # 2003 is WISDOM, especially the PS P.S. Sorry for the very long post -- it took a while to write and it made me figure out why there is tension between me and a lot of posters on this thread. A professional investor at the outset begins to think about exit strategies. This is the basis for making investment goals. An amateur investor just says "I want more" and, therefore, never knows when it is the right time to sell. Professionals count on this difference because amateurs are who we sell our stock to before it tanks. Been preaching that message for a spell myself, now I read it from a professional....Don't make me one by a long shot but builds my confidence. Thanks, Regards, Malcolm

Ariella, I always enjoy your posts, on whatever thread. However, I think you underestimate the work done by others on this thread far before your arrival. True, they don't always answer "your" questions, and are necessarily "numbers" people; but overtime many of them have provided good insight into the intranet market and its potential. There have been some good technical analyses done in the past three months -- actually very much on target. Now it is time for what you do best -- good analytical work. There are very few hypsters around here and most will appreciate your work. Did Techno have a legitimate beef with you as your somewhat egotistically reviewed your trading history for Thursday --- maybe. But the point is that most here welcome your input (not so much on trading), even those that got on your case a bit. As ever, DW

Dear Arielle, Great analysis and I apologize yesterday in my one post for not mentioning yours and Bill's and a few others' posts as being the most informative. It's your kind of analysis and objectivity that promotes good, sound investing strategy. I concur with you on all of your posts and have been researching over the weekend the 3 stks. you mentioned. Investing to me is not as much about making money as it is meeting personal goals and challenges. I decided at the age of 47 to retire and make my money work for me. Actually, I am putting in more hours here at home in the investing arena than I ever did in my profession as a Social Service Director. I rely on numerous resources to make daily decisions re: my numerous stocks. Your posts are always welcomed reading by me. If you ever want to send me an e my address is PIPINGTREE@aol.com. Would love to hear from you sometime.
