In yesterday at 11 1/4 and will be looking to take profit at 13 - 13 1/2. The question of 6 to 12 months is extremely hard to determine. However, comparing to CPTH this baby is a steal. But, CPTH has a tiny float and once the secondary is completed it should drop a bit. Still MESG has EGRP and GEOCITIES as clients not to mention many more. However, MESG and CPTH had quarterly revenues of 750k and 1 mill respectively. Thus, MESG looks extremely cheap since CPTH is 2.2 Bill and MESG is 500 mill. But a question I have is are these two companies worth that much? That is hard to say. E-mail will grow at an exponential rate but how much will MESG and CPTH benefit in terms of revenues and earnings. If I picked one it would be MESG but to pick one for 6 months.....I wouldn't because I feel safer riding it up a few points now and then and staying cash more often than not. IMHO IcyGual

I have held this puppy since it went public in 94 or something like that. I expect it will hit a new high within 6 to 12 months. I also expect Softbank to throw a lot of business its way, maybe be profitable by years end. Much will depend on acquisitions it undertakes between now and then. ZDNet is another Softbank sleeper. Wait until the world wakes up to Net2Phone technology. I see pentium III processors, mega-GB hard drives on the horizon to implement the kind of technology they are talking about.
