?? pps is still up from then. i think the pps was around $4.3 at the time, and had been rising from below $4 because news of cash buyout possibility had leaked out. anywho, pre news leak -pps was said to be soft- heading for $3.50 at the time. so over all PPS is doing ok. 'crashing down' seems like hyperbole- it only made it to a high of $5.75. and if you are worried about shorts holding the PPS down- don't give it to much attention. shorts are super overrated in pinkyland ;-)
