SUNW going bye-bye, JAVA new stock symbol

We're changing our stock symbol from SUNW to JAVA. I kinda liked our old stock symbol. It was like a warm flannel blanket on a cold night, instilling investor confidence and security, always there on the NASDAQ board. But, it's a new day and it's nice to see the emphasis on Java technology with our new stock symbol.

See:

Sun Microsystems changes stock symbol to JAVA

Here's a quote:

 The Java platform powers and 
 is made visible via more than 
 2.1 billion mobile devices (Ovum 
 2007), nearly every PC on the 
 internet and numerous consumer 
 electronics and embedded systems 
 products such as Sony's 
 Playstation 3 video game console. 
 Sun estimates the number of 
 consumers that recognize the 
 ubiquitous cup and steam on 
 Java's brand logo to be in 
 excess of a billion people.
Hey, that 2.1 billion mobile devices have specifically Java ME technology. And that Sony Playstation 3 has specifically Java ME CDC technology. So, when you see our new JAVA stock symbol, think of Java ME technology.
