I also saw it that way that they are down playing new openings. I think they mentioned that they were just considering 1-2 new locations in 2008 besides those already mentioned. That seems lower to me than I thought before (though I am not sure where I got my other ideas from).
I am still trying to decide whether that is a good or a bad thing (if it's true). On one hand I think it means that we might be seeing more realistic estimates but on the other it might be viewed as a negative sign. Still waiting and seeing...
