MORE IN THE MAKING THAN A BUYOUT !! JUST FOUND THIS IN AN ARTICLE IN PC MAGAZINE, APRIL 6TH, CALLED THE UNWIRED WEB; '' NEXTEL COMMUNICATIONS HAS JOINED WITH MOTOROLA, NETSCAPE, AND UNWIRED PLANET TO FORM THE NEXTEL ONLINE FAMILY OF WIRELESS INTERNET SERVICES. SCHEDULED FOR LAUNCH IN SIX CITIES LATER THIS YEAR, A WIRELESS INTERNET PORTAL CALLED NEXTEL ONLINE WILL INCLUDE STOCK QUOTES, WEATHER, BUSINESS HEADLINES, AND NEXTEL'S OWN INTERNET-BASED SERVICES''. NO DOUBT WE ARE GONNA' RIDE THIS ONE MUCH FURTHER THAN THE $55 A SHARE BUYOUT MENTIONED EARLIER THIS WEEK !!!

Arnie: It'll be hostile!<BG> you with me? <BG> just kidding! well whats to prevent MCI from taking a stake say 20% getting a seat on the board,hey who knows. I do feel the same! ut OH! it'll fall apart, then back up the truck, it's shopping season! I has this strange thinking lately,MCI needs NEXTEL more than N Needs M. Why? couldn"t N be better off with a local server, we already have long distance with our National foot print? we have Nextlink in the fold, it's not adding up especially for $55-65. You know I think we'd be better off with AOL, think about it, then we sign up guys like UPS whoaaaaaaaa. sorry guys I'm not buying a buyout, partnership? maybe. 3 to 1 the deal falls threw with M/W 10 to 1 it's AOL Heck you have to give them a shot! Ackersons already on the board. Hi Kevin great as always to here from you! Look for the DoLittle Inn to IPO soon! jimmyo my wife doesn't let me go AOL! <BG>
