My answer to your question is because thats what's he is there for. To write articles that people will see, get emotional about respond to and give them attention. The more attention the more advertising and advertising costs they can charge.
Do you really think joker gives a hoot about you, me or any other investor for that matter?
Why does it matter to you what he thinks? Who cares, move on from him, walk away.
Oh my God jfburk,
Cut it out please, did you read the article? You are asking him questions which the article already answered, hence "I am writing this piece because of all the crazy GTE stock holders who are emailing me".
Let's stop fueling the fire for these guys. They are horrible writers and just looking for stories. Please everyone just ignore them and they will go away and write about something else.
It's just like responding to a basher on one of these boards, they love the attention. Stop responding to these guys!!

It means that if you are holding any shares like I am then I am having a loss to report this year...
And it means the SEC is filing a motion to suspend the stock for 12months or delist it altogether for failing to keep up with required reporting...
Sans,
I don't buy it. It's quite possible that the last show had something to do with getting the Russian deal and we just never knew. Remember the first PR said that they had been talking with the Russians for the last six months.
IMO You just can't miss these shows at this stage in the game.
We keep getting PR crumbs leading us somewhere but haven't come to anything substantial yet.
For me the show was so much more viable then anything else PR related and I wasn't even there; I lived vicariously through yours and others reports. People could see things, talk to employees and find out some facts or at least some information.
Sanswired,
I find that very odd that they are not going to be there seeing how I have a recollection of the last show where alot of their marketing material was specifically targeted at being at the next show. What gives? Am I confused?
Why would he sell 7.4mil shares worth only about 44k ?
Interesting that in the article there is nothing regarding journalistic integrity, prudence, DD and good writing with re: to his colleague.
It reads like a blame game and the blame is to the investor.
What a load of malarkey.
Again, I say, let's keep the company honest by asking questions without hindering there process/jobs and see in the end.
Also, don't put all your eggs in one basket.
"Pact Delay May Be Twice As Good For GlobeTel"
Note the "MAY" word here people as in don't be too disappointed if it doesn't happen.
Low your not an iHub subscriber???????
M,
No I haven't called yet. Am at work, when I get a chance I will call them.
My comment was re: for people to "stop holding onto" this one deal. GTE is about alot of things. VoIP, Strat, WiMAX, Phone/Money Cards, Carrier. It just sounds like alot of whining going on out there. It's about trying to get an international company going. This deal may very well fall through or change drastically as time goes on.
Is the deal real? Who knows, I know that I have to accept on face value from the information I checked into myself and from the PR's that are released. I am all for people asking questions and questioning management at times. I believe this keeps the company somewhat honest
I also believe in doing your DD but to hound the company with posts here and emails at every turn is exhausting to read.
Mide I guess I just see investing (and esp. in pinks) as very risky and you should do your own DD and make your own decisions. If your in your in, and let the company do what they set out to do. If you don't trust them then why are you invested in them, sell and move on!! And if your not invested why even bother being here and commenting?
There are thousands of opportunities out there. I just don't understand why be negative or why come here and whine? You don't have to pump pump pump but be positive.
To all you chowder heads out there...
Let's see half of you come up with only 10k in 30 days if you had to.
YEESH. Yup real easy I bet to just cough up 150million without obstacles.
What is wrong here is that everyone is speculating on nothing. We don't have the details of the contract. Has anyone called the Law firm and asked if they are indeed working on this and for how long? Their reputations are now at stake as well as quite a few others.
Nobody promised us stock holders anything. They are trying to get contracts. They don't always work. Stop holding on to this, this deal could go bust at any time. That's business.
I am trying to do some DD on the proposed new russian company "NuTel".
(Referenced in http://investor.globetel.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=67726&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=802047&highligh.... )
So far I can't find anything but thought of posting here as I know this is an international community.
Q. Who will operate the network?
A. The network will be operated by NuTel Wireless ("NuTel"), a
Russian company which will be owned 100% by a European Joint Venture
company which is being established by GlobeTel and Internafta. Each
party will own 50% of the shares of the European JV company which owns
NuTel. NuTel Wireless is a newly-incorporated Russian operating
company. The Operation Control Centers responsible for operating,
monitoring and maintaining the network will be located in Russia
(Moscow), in Germany and at our Network Operations Center in Florida.
What will the European JV company be called? Has it been established (ie. Working address phone# website Incorporation?)
Also, has NuTel been established?
In addition, the above PR never mentions advertising or advertising costs. (Did I miss it?) I would be curios to know what the plans are and what the budget for such would be. There has to be a way to get the word out to the russian people to get them to notice and subscribe.
People, people people,
SJ MF article did nothing wrong EXCEPT not continue with the reporting and where the company was today. It is apparent to me that he wrote it in response to alot of us emailing him during and after the report last year. REMEMBER THE FIRST AMENDMENT rights. The reporting was shakey - not thorough and not complete. BUT from an outsiders perspective, ie. a country that doesn't promote free speech it could of raised some questions. Let's all get a grip here and let the company do it's things. That's what its about. Yes we are stock holders but in that we appoint people to do the work for the company in our name; let them do it, have faith or sell and move on.
Good2be,
You've been here a month...cab and others over a year - we know the score.
Parle vouz en francais?
I disagree. Terayon by all accounts is on its way out and just like the reporting is neglecting to be upfront and honest to its shareholders.
YET ANOTHER REASON TO QUESTION TERAYON INTEGRITY
"previously announced on November 7, 2005 that the filing of its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2005 (Form 10-Q) would be delayed and that it had commenced an accounting review after determining that certain revenues recognized in the second half of fiscal year 2004 may have been recorded in incorrect periods."
Now you can see in what type of company Terayon is running. How is that reflect on Company, leadership and integrity of Terayon as company? How many more signs do you need. Globetel, CEO have no integrity. This confirmed another shadiness associated with this company and it's operations.
Oh I don't know. It doesn't sound like it to me. I've been on this board long enough to know that bashers exist and are pretty slick and savy but I wasn't really responding to that.
I read thier post pretty slow and mulled it over and it didn't seem like any real agenda other than getting sme thoughts off their chests. But we both could be wrong - maybe is, maybe isn't. Either way they get weed out sooner or later.
oneknock,
I reference you...
Conversely, Longs are just one PR away from losing nearly all their money - I'm referring to a possible SEC investigation if Jaysons allegations have merit!
Do more DD. GTE is fully reporting. There were investigations before Huff took over and nothing was found to prosecute or look further.
IMO Just because you bought a house that was owned by someone accused of being a criminal doesn't mean its a bad house, your a criminal nor the former resident was a criminal. It may just be a house with great opportunity.
Everyone needs to calm down and move on esp. with this MF.
MF is in business and he who shall not be named is there to get people to read their shite. Its how they get revenue. They need advertisers and need you to read their ads and sell their books and newsletters and other crap.
My god if we had all calmed down and not sent SJ emails (See reference in his article - which makes me a hypocrite for mentioning it but I want to state facts - even better here I'll quote) ...anyone who's high on this stock -- and there are plenty; just ask my email inbox -- ...
cause there he found an audience; or actually one found him.
All those nasty emails - I bet he got pissed off. What he writes a glowing review and we all go that's right now your on our team and next thing you know none of us read it because he's not disagreeing with us.
I personally miss the TA and Rocky's DD. I don't have time like some of you seem to read and post all day - AND (this is for iHub) I would pay if they kept the riff-raff out like Rocky did.
Careful of the socialistic manifesto brewing here folks in these types of boards. Have a good night.
Greg,
See your posts #18306, 18343, 18367
Pit,
Seems like typical stuff going on. GTE will be getting the first payment from the Russian deal by the 31st (5 days).
Audited 10KSB will be filing. The filing is due on or before March 31, 2006.
Possible news about the Strat float in Feb. (BTW - did see the images from the website last month and all looks good)
Telecom Next in March. (See floor plan booth #1679)
http://www.telecom-next.com/ExpoCADWebTelecom-NEXT/EC/forms/attendee/index.aspx?content=floorPlan
All this relates to TA IMO as this has been the pattern for a couple years.
itsjustme!!
Great, great great response! My god one of the most intelligent things I've read! Thank you for that and for the time put in.
Low,
I respect what your saying but add a little chaos theory into your charts and equations.
I think that everything is coming into play. Just look at the board of directors. Who they are, thier backgrounds, who they lunch with, golf with, travel with.
I don't know nearly as much as you but I do know the IT industry. VOIP is about to pop! It will pop like a dog fart thought. Silent but deadly. It's grass roots. Ask any 10 people on the street if they've heard of VOIP 7 will probably say yes, and 3 to 4 will know what it is. In just 18mos that's probably a triple what it was. People are hearing it and that will help gain acceptance.
Also, I think the Strat is the bait. It's flashy and cool but really its not going to beam an IP to me as I drive across the country; the last mile needs some hardware on the ground.
Which is where I think we are. We now have a playing field for all the pieces. The team is being assembled, I believe we are in a huddle and will start marching down the field.
Your a joke dude.
You take creative license with other companies PR's and their CEO when this PR reads like a rap sheet.
Why aren't you pissed at this CEO? Everything in this PR says "hey sorry we ripped you off, we lied and we burned you".
dik
A little something re: Mr. Castellano. Very nice, very nice.
It's all coming together...
http://www.sonamobile.com/newsrelease.asp?article=2005-09-20
Amen brother!
And then post some real info from doing some diggin to make this board great!
Here's a link from my google alerts on Globetel.
It's no a great read. My speculation is that the spin machine has started.
To me it seems to start out saying that there is nothing in place telecom wise in Russia but goes on to finish that Globetel will meet with alot of competion. It really has no point imo.
http://www.times.spb.ru/index.php?action_id=2&story_id=16538
On another note. The Seth guy at MF. I went around with him early last year.
My question to him would be, if GlobeTel is all smoke and mirrors and nothing but hot air - why has he mentioned it twice?
Probably because he claims to be a writer, not an investor and there job is to get people riled up.
Vegas,
Again not directed at you.
The only thing he's done is get Q going and tried to make it work and offered you/us a piece of the pie. THATS ALOT more than I can say for myself.
I just wish this board didn't read like a junior high school ICQ or MSMessenger or AIM.
There are alot of smart people here I am sure but what a waste of time.
Damn, i wonder how many posts have been to this board in a year. Over a million I bet. How long does it take for an average post to be written, reviewed, read. Average 2 minutes?
Times 1mil = 2mil / 60 thats 33,000 hours. The average person works 2000 hrs a year full time. thats 16 people full time for a year. Could move some mountains or get this thing off the ground!!!!!!
Exactly.
If you were the CEO of a company that I had 1mil shares in at .0002 +/- can I come by your place everyday and demand stuff? Then I'd be a tool. Being a shareholder gives me voting rights either in person or proxy to let the elected officers or majority shareholders make the decisions. I don't own the company. I don't have a right to demand things IMO.
These are pinks. This is nature. Investigate, learn if you like the idea and trust them let them do the work. If you feel later you've been f*ckd call your congressman, senator get a lawyer, band together.
Dk,
I applaud you then. Its just that having 300+ posts a day starts to feel like junior high from some of these others.
Not directed to you at all Red! I didn't mean to reply. Meant a new post.
You know I've had about as much of this board as anyone can take.
What the hell are you guys doing to promote Q.
Are you out on the street wearing a billboard??
Are you calling everyone you know and telling them about it?
Are you calling your cable co. and asking for it.
Are you making flyers and posting them around town?
I know some folks here have done ALOT but reading this immature self centered crap! I don't want to be an investor
because of the OTHER OWNERS of this company YOU!!!
If you can do a better job then start a fuking GLBT station yourself!!
What a bunch of whining dick heads. You stay inside all day at your computer.
You know I've lost money on this too but I also left
the buggers alone to do their work. Sure I have ownership but I don't go harassing the owner. Sure I want him/her held accountable. But damn, how many here invested more than 10k?
You sit back doing nothing yet you expect this guy to make you a millionaire. There is no free booty!!! Frigg'n be proactive, stop blaming someone else. Do your DD before investing.
Pit,
Are you serious or sarcastic? (One reason I don't like these boards, email or IM for corresponding. Emotion is left up to the reciever and probably 90% is wrong - therefore shorts posts rule).
This PR is FAT! IMO - where do I get some more of this stock.
I am pumping pumping pumping pumping long long long long!
Look at this team. It is all coming together. No wonder the name GlobeTel... Don't think for a minute that Murdock isn't pacing right now.
I don't know anything about TA yet but I bet those little dots and lines are a buzzing or will be.
The chaos theory will be getting put to the test.
Go long....
PS. I love when the Dutch/Danes get involved they are the foreefathers of wall street and the "Ferengi" of our times.
Itsjustme,
Ok, you may be one of the type of people that make me think I am crazy.
I even included the line from the report...
That is just some of the team, de-cloaked for the first time yesterday.
What is vague about that? The point here is that this story/report is shite and a lot more of these are going to come out. Folks are going to get concerned and the wolves will come out. The wolves are going to see if GTE is a sheep, a sheep in wolf clothing or a real wolf. IMO, if it was me, I'd hire some pretty savy people experienced at dealing with this sort of stuff.
A positive spin in this article maybe but a heading/title that is negative to get you to read it.
Please don't make me out to be someone/something else with someother intentions.
Have a good day all.
That is just some of the team, de-cloaked for the first time yesterday.
DE-CLOAKED!? Come on Mr. Perry, this information has been PR'd and readily available by GTE.
I surely hope GTE hires someone to start taking care of this MF, NY post and etc. and let Mr. Huff be free to do the things he is doing.
Anybody post this yet? Interesting stuff...
Rupert Murdoch, DirecTV Wireless Broadband
Murdoch makes his play....
Posted 2006-01-10 14:10:57
News Corp's Rupert Murdoch recently invaded the UK broadband scene with his purchase of EasyNet, a DSL provider with 2,600 miles of fiber and 36 POPs. In November, whispers began to surface that Murdoch was looking to get into the American broadband business too, after gobbling up a number of US online media outlets (IGN, Myspace, adware vendor Intermix).
Now some details are starting to emerge, and it it appears his plan it to spend a cool billion in conjunction with DirecTV to start a wireless broadband ISP, reports Bloomberg News. No hard details about what technology the companies will use, but it appears as if Wimax will be the front-runner - recall DirecTV executive comments from last August. story continues..

Sir,
This is my last post on it. My take is they are trying to stir the pot.
It hasn't taken long since Rocky's departure for this board to start looking and sounding like RBs IMO and if iHub had any integrity left they would coerce Rocky back. Nothing against Mide as I think he has done a good job, but it is a job and takes time. My hats off to Mide and so to those of thus here since the glory days policing it ourselves (as we can) if prudent to me.
Mide,
Good morning. I think if you read posts 18318, 18315, 18258
by nilmerlin you see that this individual is intentionally causing some ruckus.
It was apparent to me last night - to which I responded - and then come this morning they posted the website registrar information.
Granted this information is public the information from the website was probably not designed for public consumption yet.
I may of been being used for the up coming shows and simply not aware the IP had gone public.
