Good point, macker. This announcement has a lot between the lines that will be read loud and clear by the major telcos and the institutional investors. I tend to be conservative in my back of the envelope estimates because even the conservative figures give blowout numbers compared with our current stock price. But the telcos and the institutions don't care about our stock price, they care about the fundamentals being established for future growth. Fundamentals such as:Exclusive agreements with countries that it is very difficult to get into, such as Egypt and others in the Middle East that will be coming.Joint ventures that create long-term arrangements, not just contracts that can be written one year and canceled the next.Low overhead due to Digitcom's enhancing the costly infrastructure that has already been laid by AT&T and others. This translates to pure profit.Key network nodes that can be used to extend into other areas. Egypt can link the entire Middle East and Africa, for example. And from there, with existing undersea cable, the network can extend to South America.
