This stock could get stupid, I will agree with you on that. What is most exciting about this company is that it combines a Yahoo, an @home, a patented technology and a DSL equipment provider into one holding company with a master plan to utilize all their patents, products and yet to be announced alliances to offer a category killer service mostly to smaller cable operators and larger telco operators (CLEC, ILEC's). Okane may make everyone rethink their strategy in terms of high speed interent access and video/audio entertainment convergence. Not to mentions telephony, which will also be one of the services offered.

This is one of those companies that comes out of nowhere and changes the game from a paradigm/technology standpoint. Of course, had they gone about the orginal plan with a standard IPO rather than simply listing the public float (about 10 percent of the outstanding shares), this stock would be smoking hot (after the story was told to investors). When the Superwire story gets out there and others, including @home, hear of their business plans, I suspect a lot of attention will come this company's way from both Wall Street and industry players.
