ahoj!! As always, good post Frank. I am interested, hypothetically of course, if AOL ( or ? )were to attempt to acquire XNET how would that effect us....how would they go about it and what say would we as shareholders have? TIA pivo

FF; i agree with your thinking and of course I am biased with 15K of the stock... hopefully this 3-3/4 price is starting to form a little higher base than the 3 3-1/4 range... i have another ? though.. all the talk about filing in early May for a Nasdaq listing..say they do file by mid-May what is the procedure and give or take a time frame for an answer and if granted how long then before a listing takes place? thanks and good luck on your trades pp

My opinion - I would like to play devils advocate. Do not misinterpret this post, I am a share holder and I intend to hold long, but I think (but would like to believe otherwise) that the AOL buy-out discussion is EXTREMELY premature and somewhat reckless. First, I believe that the Chinese government would have no problem granting a license to a billion dollar ISP (AOL) for the right amount of money and a small % of the revenues. Second, (I believe) XNET is not in enough cities (yet) to provide the type of service that a company like AOL would want to buy. Even if AOL bought XNET, wouldn't AOL need to apply for licenses' to expand into other cities any way? Isn't this what they would like to avoid? If I were making decisions for AOL I would wait for a greater audience or find another company that has a larger audience. Why not let the indigenous ISP's do the leg-work to get "spread around" before buying? I just think that a buy-out is a ways off and I would hate to get peoples hopes up prematurely. Again - I am long in/on XNET and would love to see a press release to prove me wrong but this is a big issue to just be throwing it around. Be careful and responsible about your posts. tom
