Good points Richard - I am keeping my ears to the ground on the takeover rumour... Don't worry about your English, mon Francais est tres pauvre. I am currently studying the intensive French prog. at McGill. Good luck. Let's keep the thread alive. Bonne chance et bonne nuit!

Salut Richard, Article in ®La Presse¯ was ok, last month there was another one in ®Report on business¯ magazine on analysts's best picks and Eicon was one of those. - Hiring of Gingrich is a good shot (weakness of canadian companies is ALLWAYS Marketing). - Acquisition is not allways a good thing on short term(look at acquisition of Diehl by Eicon, but I agree that ISDN is bringing the cash now and in the future). - xDSL will not be available everywhere soon (Why telcos would cannibalize theirs T1 lines at 1000$/mo for a 75$/mo line ?) Good article here : thestandard.com - Takeover is allways possible but big companies look for market share first or incredible technological advantage second. Regards, Louis P.S. Sorry for my english writing too...
