Chip, congrats on a good day! the point is SKYM didn't go down today as it has been over the past 4 sessions.... After losing 24 pts in 4 sessions, a DCB is expected. Actually I'm surprised it only bounced 1 9/16 in light of a very strong market today. We still have alot of shorts that will start to cover once they see we will not make single digits... Perhaps so, but there're even more new and old shorts anxiously waiting to pull the trigger on this one. Regards, Tom

Every dog must have its day. I suppose that today was SKYM's day. I'm expecting maybe even tomorrow it'll go up again. I covered my short position the @ 17 and am happy now that it's above that level. I can establish a new position when it hits 20. That's my new target. However, I fear that our friend, the CEO, will dump some more shares driving the price down to lower levels before I have a chance to reshort. We'll see. As for SKYM reaching mid-30ties, only in your dreams, bubba!

SKYM has reached the radar screens of the Wall Street. As the stock stabilizes, we can expect a buying frenzy from those who missed the first ride. It is an internet stock just as much as any other and is facing the same criticism as many long term high fliers faced before this. The CEO took a gamble and ended up owning more stock. He did give the other guys more that what their options were worth at the time so they can only blame their own stars or judgement. The number of short messages on the thread is a good sign that shorts have not given up yet and are being a tad greedy. SKYM is in a very unique position to keep developing their clientele because of their presence in United Airlines, Alaska Airlines, Delta, Horizon and 13 others some of them are huge. Business travellers who are checking their catalog in the airplanes while reading the Wall Street papers are connecting the two and VIOLA - a well known internet company is here. Do your own DD. Will be sampling their catalog (Love their products already)and check out the customer service levels. Harry
