I am investing for the long-term. I have been a shareholder since November 1995, and today's current price is essentially the same price as it was in 1995 at the time of my purchase. If Wall Street expects big announcements at the time of the NN's annual meeting, why isn't our stock price rising in advance of those announcements, particularly by short-term oriented investors? Anyway, I hope that you are right.

Booming Market Expected for Global Wireless Local Loop After 2000: Worldwide Demand Projected to Approach 50 Million by 2005

PR Newswire - September 16, 1998 10:36

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Although fixed wireless local loop (WLL) technology has been in existence for several years, The Strategis Group estimates that there are only one million subscribers as of the end of 1997. In the next few years, however, a combination of new WLL licensing, reduction in equipment costs, and increasing acceptance of wireless as a local loop alternative, will result in this market taking off after 2000 and growing 50 percent annually from 1998-2002. The vast majority of WLL demand will be found in markets where wireline networks are inadequate and unable to meet pent-up demand.

In Global Wireless Local Loop Markets: 1998, which was released today, The Strategis Group estimates that worldwide wireless local loop subscribers will grow from over one million in 1997 to approximately 8 million by 2000. By 2005, The Strategis Group projects 47 million WLL subscribers.
