FWIW: this WIND situation reminds me of PSFT, when they reported only one cent above estimates, but questions arose about the sustainability of very high growth rates; the stock tanked from 50's to eventually teens; now is trading, after a recent "run up" in low 20's. The parallel also in regards to the company's ability to count revenues accumulated, whenever they chose to add to a given quarters EPS report. Seems software companys are more subject to these types of rapid "adjustments" in market perception of share price value. I was watching this stock recently, bought and sold quickly as I didn't see the consistency of price action moving toward EPS report, just got an itchy trigger finger, no loss/no profit, but waiting for an opportunity to buy. Is this the opportunity, or is their something fundamentally amiss with this company? Good luck to longs, I sympathize, having been thru this type of wrenching experience myself. vocex
