I spoke to Inv.Rel today and these are the numbers for the Conference Calls. 1-800-2890436 at 2.30P.M. and replay at 1-800-7539756 at 6P.M.ET. With regard to all the new companies that signed contracts with Ciena since Sept.not all of them will be booked for revenue for this qtr.Going back to last qtr's conf.call by Nettles,he did say that this qtr will be way below last qtr.Given that Ciena had net income of $$16M last qtr,if they do only 25% of that this qtr,then we could be looking at at least 0.01 net income.So there is a possibility of them turning a 1c profit.Whats more important regardless of the earnings is what Nettles will be saying this afternoon at the Conf.Call.If things look +ve going forward then we should be O.K.
