vonage的股票能买吗？
和很多vonage用户一样， 我也收到了vonage发来的消息，告诉我可以用IPO的价格来买他们的股票， 作为对早期用户的“回报”：
Vonage要上市了!
刚刚收到vonage的email:
As you may know, Vonage has filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) related to its proposed initial public offering (IPO) of common stock. Because much of our success is attributable to our customers, we have asked the underwriters of the IPO to reserve shares of common stock for sale to certain Vonage customers at the IPO price in a Directed Share Program.
Vonage还提供了老客户购买早期股票的机会:
You may be eligible to participate in the Directed Share Program if you meet certain eligibility requirements, including having been a Vonage customer from December 15, 2005 through February 1, 2006. You do not need to continue to be a Vonage customer in order to participate. Further information about the terms and conditions of the Directed Share Program, including the eligibility requirements and the process for participating in the program, are available in our registration statement and at the following website:
www.vonageipo.com不过要求必须是美国公民或者即将成为美国居民的人...所以即使看好其股票偶也没法参与了...
不过Vonage亏损严重, 上市后是否能有好的表现,实在难说.
虽然我不能买， 也不打算买， 但还是好奇地查了一些资料：

简直不可思议， vonage的亏损严重程度可能是空前的...比dot com泡沫时代的还厉害！
这篇文章的标题更绝：
Vonage: "buy our stock for $17; but value will dilute to $2.78"
http://blogs.zdnet.com/ip-telephony/?p=1078
呵呵， 如果$17买进， 立刻相当于贬值到$2.78 ! 这样的股票能期望涨吗？
更可怕的事情是：
Jeffry A. Citron, the "Chief Strategist" who was, until February, the CEO. As the Vonage IPO filings explain it (page 118), Citron was among several employees at Datek who got into major troubles with the SEC.
"The SEC alleged that Mr. Citron and the other defendants accessed the SOES system to execute millions of unlawful proprietary trades, generating tens of millions of dollars in illegal profits. The complaint further alleged that these defendants hid their fraudulent use of the SOES system from regulators by allocating the trades to dozens of nominee accounts, creating fictitious books and records, and filing false reports with the SEC. To settle the charges, Mr. Maschler, Mr. Citron, and the other individuals paid $70 million in civil penalties and disgorgements of profits, of which Mr. Citron paid $22.5 million in civil penalties. These fines were among the largest fines ever collected by the SEC against individuals."

不过如果vonage上市后股价惨淡， 很可能是对voip行业的一个严重打击。
