[09:05] Pl8z2win: Among them, the most dramatic upward estimate revisions belonged to small-cap Metro One Telecommunications (MTON), an outsourcer of directory-assistance services to wireless carriers. Despite the telecom carnage all around, analysts have boosted their Metro One earnings expectations for the remainder of 2001 by nearly 10%, and for 2002 by nearly 25%, within the past four weeks. That's a bigger boost than eBay's estimates saw for
