  Thanks for the alert.  I immediately hooked into Barons to read the
article.  I am indeed interested in how IOM may react.  I will say, when
the Sony/Fuji HiFD announcement was first made (to my knowledge) about a
month ago, the stock did soften, but only briefly and nowhere near as
much as I had feared.  I will watch carefully, for whatever good
"carefully" does in such a case. <gr>
