Did you mean a 3-for-1 split or 4-for-1? I'll take the 2-for-1 we have this month! I'll tell you the significance of the "181" when we hit it. What a day!

I was fortunate enough to get in a little over a year ago in the high $40's. My reasoning involved Irwin's track record, the royalty generation IPRs and a gut feeling that Wireless in general had the greatest growth potential. The current price is beyond my wildest dreams and I (not being a techie type) am beginning to wonder how one establishes a reasonable valuation for this company. Has anyone 'worked the numbers' viz-a-viz expected future revenues, revenue growth, new markets, etc.? In short, I'm wondering when it would be prudent to 'take some money off the table.' I admit to not being a very sophisticated investor and am starting to get nervous with this 'Fear versus Greed' aspect of our investment. Any and all comments would be greatly appreciated. RWB
