>>If the front line people who intend to use the product are buyers at this level than at least to me it is a good sign.<< How much is truth and how much is hype? At this point its hard to take at face value anything you say cause you keep trying to find the light thats faltering somewhere in the black hole. After seeing you still hold VVUS from 6 to 3 well that says it all. You could have doubled the number of shares by selling at 6 and buying back at 3. I'll admit I didnt think EVERY institution would bail and the stock would go below 4 1/2 or so but when it started dropping it was very apparent a bottom must be found. Which it did around 2. I sure wish I had some hard news one way or another, But at this point I take my loss and try to make it else where. After the last year, I am sure Mr.Lazyland would find some way to bankrupt this company soon.
