I've noticed it several times during two years that I've been watching this stock. At the end of a run down, when sellers are pretty much dried up, one morning someone drops a small amount of shares at silly price, say $2-3 dollars below previous closing. It is done with one purpose - to trigger stop losses. After those poor souls have been taken to the cleaners and no easy sellers are around, stock price starts its next run up. It doesn't necessarily mean that we are heading into the next runup. <G> Just an observation that sometimes works. BTW, not all brokers take stop loss orders on NASDAQ stocks.

The most important part of last quarter's earnings was the fact that they came in-line with estimates. Going forward, the most important thing (IMHO) is the subscriber growth rate, the rate should be at least 6% by the forecast. If they hit 6%, it will mark the first increase in subscriber growth (vs. the prior quarter) in over a year and should mark the beginning of the transition from pc based to web based transactions...and they lived happily every after. <g> Benny
