Nice rises Friday and today,after being tipped up by Money Week magazine ,with first half sales up 86%,and a cheaper Broadband bundle than Car Phone warehouse,a forward p/e of 15.4 and a likely takeover target seems the one to be on in a guarateed consolidating sector.

Sounds like Mr Dubens wants to keep hold of Wimax why else would he tie up with Nokia,this is the bit all the others want,pencil in the problem with Bulldog and you can see why the others are reluctant.At the moment all the big holders are in,including the main man,its tommorow if there are big sells things start to get TRUMPY,still the value of the company is still there and im sticking.jim

cant believe dubens will sell for less than 18p.traditional end of decade bull run on the cards have held pxc shares for over 3 years will hold for another 3 and will be better off for it.this company will be sold eventually and the price will only go up and the competition knows it.

all twitchiness and rumour and disinformation, intentional or otherwise ...... fingers crossed!

british bulls rec. hold at .1575p. I am hanging onto mine. If we only have one bid off carphone warehouse. How much do you think the bid will be worth.

i would ultimately be fairly surprised not to see at least 19p but would consider 22p a big result

i'll be very much pleased to see a 19p from Carphone, but not really expecting this price. Carphone's Talk Talk is already sucking cash in, and as it's the only bidder left now, the final price really depends on Duben's eagerness to sell at a low price. otherwise, like the FT on Sartuday said, if the sale fails, another buyer will soon emerge. Consolidation in this sector is for sure.

im holding.

who says CWH is the only bidder and all others have fallen by the wayside? .... as far as i can determine, it is only hearsay and rumour .... for sure PXC have made no announcement of any kind, though they will be duty bound to do so on 17th if not before

you make a point cynic, they are all rumours!

don't think they will update anything before the final results, of course except those 'holdings in company'

to my surprise, having just checked "Trades", i note that sales and buys are pretty even

So far nothing has been officially confirmed or denied yet!
Pipex did not return finanial mail's call's and BT refused to comment ?

Pipex Wireless and Nokia Siemens Networks are collaborating on the roll-out of WiMax infrastructure and services in the UK.

Pipex Wireless has started customer service trials in Warwick and Milton Keynes and will now use Nokia Siemens Networks equipment, services and networking expertise, to accelerate further tests and service roll-outs across the UK.

Pipex, which is the only provider in the UK near to launching full commercial WiMax services, will start using Nokia Siemens technology later in 2007.

WiMax is a long-range radio technology which provides broadband connectivity. It is a cable-free alternative to fixed line broadband. Most WiMax deployments to date provide fixed WiMax, while Pipex is trying to enable users to use WiMax on the move.

WiMax services would compete with services provided by the five mobile operators who have invested heavily in 3G.

i'm still ok even at 13.75p as my money has still doubled in 3 or 4 years.

am happy to hold another 2 years if need be as this share will go up through time albeit slowly.

its been a decent buy for me though

My thoughts exactly scotinvestor!

meanwhile, sp is attempting to rally .... or is that just resisting further falls!

who cares..........if it goes between 17 to 20p i'll sell.

otherwise forget about it for a year or 2.

plenty other things to worry about in life than this

The answer to that one scot, is that everyone who has this stock cares.
What the point of investing & taking part in these discussion boards if you don't care???
Sounds like you have got your fingers burnt slightly with this one?
Been there, done that! :o)

One other thing that would worry me, in response to shareshop's post, is that there has been a great deal of adverse publicity recently concerning the easily highjacked WiFi connections currently available & I wonder whether WiMax is going to suffer from the same. There would need to be much more secure connections available imo, before it will be approved.
Also I believe that the take up on the 3G networks has been very disappointing & I saw an article recently (which I will try & find) which implied that 3G would eventually disappear to be replaced by another system.

according to FT CPW have dropped out leaving just BT in the running ...... sweaty palms ahead?

good morning richard. Just read your message re cpw pulling out. What do you think the chances are of bt bidding for pxc now?
