re: Ciena Tunes In Bookham It looks like they were shooting for XFP-e but didn't quite fit the required width in the end.

What's the electrical host i/o? XFP connector?

re: Ciena Tunes In Bookham not much more than ex-NT HPOC optics (aka Bookham) guy at Ciena finding meaningful projects for buddies that remained at the alma matter.

Bookham started with it's hart in the right place. Did great optical manufacturing and production things, but as in the bubble era... the swindlers got in on it and made it feel dirty.

re: Ciena Tunes In Bookham Profit for insiders, company or investors? Insiders: yea, multi-bags-full per SEC filings. Company: never that I am aware of, again per filings.

Wonder if the old insider game of you pump, I'll dump (and screw-em if JQ public can't take a joke) is at play here? Just a question.

Products and technology seem to be good. What is amazing is the doors are still open and the stock is still trading.

re: Ciena Tunes In Bookham Stanley,

curious minds would like to know. Who at Ciena is an ex NT HBOC alum? Clearly you are more aware of the resume's of some of the decision makers.

would be interesting and useful information I think for many of us on this board.

thanks,

Nope, Rickman was the biggest scammer of all.

The exec tram has turned over twice now, as have all the other staff. Its not the same company any more.
