                                COMPANY SUMMARY

     Datalink.net is a wireless application service provider (w-ASP) that
delivers end-to-end wireless data solutions to enterprises and custom data
applications to their customers. Datalink.net enables wireless devices that
allow enterprises and consumers to customize, respond, and interact with
critical data. The Company's XpressLink(TM) technology processes high-speed data
content feeds or corporate databases for wireless applications that are
compatible with the entire range of wireless devices, networks and protocols.

     Datalink.net markets a suite of products and services for both the B2B
(business to business) and B2C (business to consumer) markets. Datalink.net
embraces the strategy of addressing both the enterprise and the consumer needs
through its two distinct business models: the Business-to-Business (B2B) group
and the Business-to-Consumer (B2C) group. The B2B group focuses on three areas
that project the greatest amount of growth potential and the greatest need for
wireless solutions. Those segments are: field services, financial services and
the healthcare industry.

     Datalink.net offers specialized wireless solutions designed to expand the
market reach for all enterprises. The company has developed a suite of wireless
enablement products and services that give Internet marketers and corporate
enterprises a wireless outreach. Currently, the company's enterprise business
solutions suite includes: Wireless Bookmark(TM); Auction Engine(TM); Content
Engine(TM) ;Transaction Engine(TM); Intranet Productivity Tool(TM); Custom
Wireless Application(TM); and Global Market Pro(TM).

     Datalink.net is continually developing new wireless information services to
reflect multiple personal and enterprise information requirements. The company
takes wireless information services to the next level by customizing and
delivering actionable and time sensitive information wherever that information
is most valuable to the customer. The services and applications are device
agnostic and protocol independent, integrating seamlessly into every enterprise
infrastructure and working with every wireless carrier and all text messaging
devices.

    Datalink.net's consumer product line focuses on the device owner as the
customer. From critical financial data to information supporting the
individual's lifestyle, these products allow customers to receive customized
information from real-time data feeds, receive and send messages and other
information, as well as set their own parameters for data they wish to receive.
Real-time stock quotes, news and sports are but a few examples of the
information that customers can receive at scheduled times, intervals or as event
driven alerts. Datalink.net's current line of consumer products includes:
QuoteXpress(R), SplitXpress(TM), CompanyNews, MailXpress(TM), MessageX(TM),
RumorXpress(TM), InfoXtraII(TM), Net2Go(TM) and RelayXpress(TM).

     Datalink.net, Inc. was formed under the laws of the State of Nevada on June
18, 1996. On June 27, 1996, the Company went public through an acquisition of a
public corporation, Datalink Communications Corporation ("DCC"), which was
previously Lord Abbott, Inc., a Colorado corporation formed in 1986. Beginning
in January of 2001, the Company intends to begin doing business under the
"Semotus Solutions, Inc." name. The Board of Directors has approved an amendment
to the Articles of Incorporation to change the name of the Company to "Semotus
Solutions, Inc.". The Company is holding a special Shareholders Meeting on
January 11, 2001 to get shareholder approval of this amendment. The new name is
being proposed to better reflect the Company's enterprise strategy to emphasize
its end-to-end solutions being offered to a broad range of businesses, and to
generate a stronger company identity and branding power. Datalink.net's
corporate headquarters are located at 1735 Technology Drive, Suite 790, San Jose
California 95110. Our telephone number is (408) 367-1700 and our world wide web
site is www.datalink.net.

                                 RISK FACTORS

Investing in the shares is very risky. You should be able to bear a complete
loss of your investment. In deciding whether to purchase the shares, you should
carefully consider the following factors, among others, as well as information
contained in this prospectus, our most recent annual report on Form 10-KSB, and
the other documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus:

WE HAVE HISTORICALLY INCURRED LOSSES AND THESE LOSSES MAY INCREASE IN THE
FUTURE.

     We have recorded a net loss for each year since our current business
started in 1996 through our fiscal year ended March 31, 2000. As of September
30, 2000 we had an accumulated deficit of $34,500,819. Additionally, we had a
reported loss of approximately $4,162,910 for the six-month period ended
September 30, 2000. Because we expect to continue to incur significant sales and
marketing, systems development and administrative expenses, we will need to
generate significant revenue to become profitable and sustain profitability on a
quarterly or annual basis. We may not achieve or sustain our revenue or profit
goals and our losses may continue or grow in the future. As a result, we may not
be able to increase revenue or achieve profitability on a quarterly or annual
basis.

THERE IS NO ESTABLISHED MARKET FOR WIRELESS DATA SERVICES AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE
TO SELL ENOUGH OF OUR SERVICES TO BECOME PROFITABLE.

     The markets for wireless data services are still emerging and continued
growth in demand for and acceptance of these services remains uncertain. Current
barriers to market acceptance of these services include cost, reliability,
functionality and ease of use. We cannot be certain that these barriers will be
overcome. Our competitors may develop alternative wireless data communications
systems that gain broader market acceptance than our systems. If the market for
our services does not grow or grows more slowly than we currently anticipate, we
may not be able to attract customers for our services and our revenues would be
adversely affected.

WE MAY NOT ACHIEVE PROFITABILITY IF WE ARE UNABLE TO MAINTAIN, IMPROVE AND
DEVELOP THE WIRELESS DATA SERVICES WE OFFER.

     We believe that our future business prospects depend in part on our ability
to maintain and improve our current services and to develop new ones on a timely
basis. Our services will have to achieve market acceptance, maintain
technological competitiveness and meet an expanding range of customer
requirements. As a result of the complexities inherent in our service offerings,
major new wireless data services and service enhancements require long
development and testing periods. We may experience difficulties that could delay
or prevent the successful development, introduction or marketing of new services
and service enhancements. Additionally, our new services and service
enhancements may not achieve market acceptance. If we cannot effectively
maintain, improve and develop services we may not be able to recover our fixed
costs or otherwise become profitable.

IF WE DO NOT RESPOND EFFECTIVELY AND ON A TIMELY BASIS TO RAPID TECHNOLOGICAL
CHANGE, OUR SERVICES MAY BECOME OBSOLETE AND WE MAY LOSE SALES.

     The wireless and data communications industries are characterized by
rapidly changing technologies, industry standards, customer needs and
competition, as well as by frequent new product and service introductions. Our
services are integrated with wireless handheld devices and the computer systems
of our customers. Our services must also be compatible with the data networks of
wireless carriers. We must respond to technological changes affecting both our
customers and suppliers. We may not be successful in developing and marketing,
on a timely and cost-effective basis, new services that respond to technological
changes, evolving industry standards or changing customer requirements. Our
ability to grow and achieve profitability will depend, in part, on our ability
to accomplish all of the following in a timely and cost-effective manner:

                                       6
<PAGE>

     - effectively use and integrate new wireless and data technologies;
     - continue to develop our technical expertise;
     - enhance our wireless data, engineering and system design services;
     - develop applications for new wireless networks; and
     - influence and respond to emerging industry standards and other changes.

WE DEPEND UPON WIRELESS NETWORKS OWNED AND CONTROLLED BY OTHERS. IF WE DO NOT
HAVE CONTINUED ACCESS TO SUFFICIENT CAPACITY ON RELIABLE NETWORKS, WE MAY BE
UNABLE TO DELIVER SERVICES AND OUR SALES COULD DECREASE.

     Our ability to grow and achieve profitability partly depends on our ability
to buy sufficient capacity on the networks of wireless carriers and on the
reliability and security of their systems. We depend on these companies to
provide uninterrupted and "bug free" service and would not be able to satisfy
our customers' needs if they failed to provide the required capacity or needed
level of service. In addition, our expenses would increase and our profitability
could be materially adversely affected if wireless carriers were to increase the
prices of their services.

WE MAY FAIL TO SUPPORT OUR ANTICIPATED GROWTH IN OPERATIONS WHICH COULD REDUCE
DEMAND FOR OUR SERVICES AND MATERIALLY ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR REVENUE.

     Our business strategy is based on the assumption that the number of
subscribers to our services, the amount of information they want to receive and
the number of services we offer will all increase. We must continue to develop
and expand our systems and operations to accommodate this growth. The expansion
and adaptation of our customer service and network operations center requires
substantial financial, operational and management resources. We may be unable to
expand our operations for one or more of the following reasons:

     - we may not be able to locate or hire at reasonable compensation rates
          qualified  engineers and other employees necessary to expand our
          capacity;
     - we may not be able to obtain the hardware necessary to expand our
          capacity;
     - we may not be able to expand our customer service, billing and other
          related support  systems; and
     - we may not be able to obtain sufficient additional capacity from wireless
          carriers.

     Due to the limited deployment of our services to date, the ability of our
systems and operations to connect and manage a substantially larger number of
customers while maintaining superior performance is unknown. Any failure on our
part to develop and maintain our wireless data services as we experience rapid
growth could significantly reduce demand for our services and materially
adversely affect our revenue.

WE DEPEND ON RECRUITING AND RETAINING KEY MANAGEMENT AND TECHNICAL PERSONNEL
WITH WIRELESS DATA AND SOFTWARE EXPERIENCE AND WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO DEVELOP NEW
PRODUCTS OR SUPPORT EXISTING PRODUCTS IF WE CANNOT HIRE OR RETAIN QUALIFIED
EMPLOYEES.

     Because of the technical nature of our products and the dynamic market in
which we compete, our performance depends on attracting and retaining key
employees. Competition for qualified personnel in the wireless data and software
industries is intense and finding qualified personnel with experience in both
industries is even more difficult. We believe there are only a limited number of
individuals with the requisite skills in the field of wireless data
communication, and it is becoming increasingly difficult to hire and retain
these persons. We have a written employment agreement and key-man life insurance
in the face amount of $3 million with Anthony N. LaPine, the Company's chairman,
CEO and president. We do not have employment agreements or key-man life
insurance with any other officer. The loss of Mr. LaPine or any other officer
may have an adverse effect on our business and prospects by depriving us of the
management services necessary to operate Datalink.net and achieve profitability.

THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO EFFECTIVELY COMPETE AGAINST
CURRENT AND FUTURE COMPETITORS.  OUR MARKET IS VERY COMPETITIVE.

                                       7
<PAGE>

     There are a number of competitors who are larger and have much greater
resources than we do. Our competitors have more experienced people and larger
facilities and budgets than we do. These competitors could use their resources
to conduct greater amounts of research and development and to offer services at
lower prices than we can. These factors may adversely affect our ability to
compete by decreasing the demand for our products and services.

WE MAY NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL FUNDS.

     These funds may not be available to us.  Alternatively, raising additional
funds may dilute your share ownership.  We have met capital needs with private
sales of securities.  However, we cannot assure you that we will not need
additional funds, that any needed funds will be available to us at all, or that
any available funds will be given on acceptable terms.  If we need additional
funds, and are unable to raise them, we will not be able to continue our
business operations.  If we raise funds by selling equity securities, those
sales may dilute your share ownership.  If we raise funds by forming joint
ventures with other companies, we may have to give up some of our rights to
certain technologies, products or marketing territories.

OUR PATENTS MAY NOT PROTECT US FROM COMPETITORS.

     Costs of prosecuting and defending patent infringement claims could hurt
our business.  We currently own a number of patents related to our products, and
have applied for additional patents.  We are not certain whether any new patents
will be granted in the future.  Even if we receive additional patents, they may
not provide us with protection from competitors.  Our failure to obtain patent
protection, or illegal use by others of any patents we have or may obtain could
adversely affect our business, financial condition and operating results.  In
addition, the laws of certain foreign countries do not protect proprietary
rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States.  Claims for damages
resulting from any such infringement may be asserted or prosecuted against us.
The validity of any patents we have or obtain could also be challenged.  Any
such claims could be time consuming and costly to defend, diverting management's
attention and our resources.

WE MAY BE SUBJECT TO LIABILITY FOR TRANSMITTING INFORMATION, AND OUR INSURANCE
COVERAGE MAY BE INADEQUATE TO PROTECT US FROM THIS LIABILITY.

     We may be subject to claims relating to information transmitted over
systems we develop or operate. These claims could take the form of lawsuits for
defamation, negligence, copyright or trademark infringement or other actions
based on the nature and content of the materials. Although we carry general
liability insurance, our insurance may not cover potential claims of this type
or may not be adequate to cover all costs incurred in defense of potential
claims or to indemnify us for all liability that may be imposed.

DISRUPTION OF OUR SERVICES DUE TO ACCIDENTAL OR INTENTIONAL SECURITY BREACHES
MAY HARM OUR REPUTATION CAUSING A LOSS OF SALES AND COULD INCREASE OUR EXPENSES.

     A significant barrier to the growth of wireless data services or
transactions on the Internet or by other electronic means has been the need for
secure transmission of confidential information. Our systems could be disrupted
by unauthorized access, computer viruses and other accidental or intentional
actions. We may incur significant costs to protect against the threat of
security breaches or to alleviate problems caused by such breaches. If a third-
party were able to misappropriate our users' personal or proprietary information
or credit card information, we could be subject to claims, litigation or other
potential liabilities that could materially adversely impact our revenue and may
result in the loss of customers.

                                       8
<PAGE>

ANY TYPE OF SYSTEMS FAILURE COULD REDUCE SALES, OR INCREASE COSTS OR RESULT IN
CLAIMS OF LIABILITY.

     Our existing wireless data services are dependent on real-time, continuous
feeds. The ability of our subscribers to obtain data or  make wireless
transactions through our service requires timely and uninterrupted connections
with our wireless network carriers. Any disruption could result in delays in our
subscribers' ability to receive information or execute wireless transactions.
There can be no assurance that our systems will operate appropriately if we
experience a hardware or software failure or if there is an earthquake, fire or
other natural disaster, a power or telecommunications failure, an act of God or
an act of war. A failure in our systems could cause delays in transmitting data,
and as a result we may lose customers or face litigation that could involve
material costs and distract management from operating our business.

AN INTERRUPTION IN THE SUPPLY OF PRODUCTS AND SERVICES THAT WE OBTAIN FROM THIRD
PARTIES COULD CAUSE A DECLINE IN SALES OF OUR SERVICES.

     In designing, developing and supporting our wireless data services, we rely
on wireless carriers, wireless handheld device manufacturers, content providers
and software providers. These suppliers may experience difficulty in supplying
us products or services sufficient to meet our needs or they may terminate or
fail to renew contracts for supplying us these products or services on terms we
find acceptable. Any significant interruption in the supply of any of these
products or services could cause a decline in sales of our services unless and
until we are able to replace the functionality provided by these products and
services. We also depend on third parties to deliver and support reliable
products, enhance their current products, develop new products on a timely and
cost-effective basis and respond to emerging industry standards and other
technological changes. In addition, we rely on the ability of our content to
continue to provide us with uninterrupted access to the news and financial
information we provide to our customers. The failure of third parties to meet
these criteria, or their refusal or failure to deliver the information for
whatever reason, could materially harm our business.

NEW LAWS AND REGULATIONS THAT IMPACT OUR INDUSTRY COULD INCREASE OUR COSTS OR
REDUCE OUR OPPORTUNITIES TO EARN REVENUE.

     We are not currently subject to direct regulation by the Federal
Communications Commission or any other governmental agency, other than
regulations applicable to businesses in general. However, in the future, we may
become subject to regulation by the FCC or another regulatory agency. In
addition, the wireless carriers who supply us airtime are subject to regulation
by the FCC and regulations that affect them could increase our costs or reduce
our ability to continue selling and supporting our services.

OUR STOCK PRICE, LIKE THAT OF MANY TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES, MAY BE VOLATILE.

     We expect that the market price of our common stock will be volatile. We
are involved in a highly visible, rapidly changing industry and stock prices in
our and similar industries have risen and fallen in response to a variety of
factors, including:

     -  announcements of new wireless data communications technologies and new
        providers of wireless data communications;
     -  acquisitions of or strategic alliances among providers of wireless data
        communications;
     -  changes in recommendations by securities analysts regarding the results
        or prospects of providers of wireless data communications; and
     -  changes in investor perceptions of the acceptance or profitability of
        wireless data communications.

                                       9
<PAGE>

WE DO NOT PLAN TO PAY ANY DIVIDENDS.

     Our shares should not be purchased by investors who need income from their
holdings.  We intend to retain any future earnings to fund the operation and
expansion of our business.  We do not anticipate paying cash dividends on our
shares in the future.  As a result, our common stock is not a good investment
for people who need income from their holdings.

THE RESALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK RECENTLY REGISTERED COULD HAVE A DEPRESSIVE
EFFECT ON THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR SHARES.

     We recently registered 172,500 shares of common stock subject to resale by
certain security holders of Datalink.net.  Up to 10,000 of those shares are
issuable upon the exercise of common stock purchase warrants.  We are unable to
predict the effect that sales of these shares may have on the then prevailing
market price of our shares.  It is likely that market sales of large amounts of
Datalink.net shares (or the potential for those sales even if they do not
actually occur) will have the effect of depressing the market price of our
shares.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS

     Datalink.net will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common
stock by the selling stockholders.

                             SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

     Certain stockholders may offer 249,998 shares of common stock for resale.
The shares are being offered for the account of the stockholders in the table
below and their donees or pledges.

     The following table sets forth information concerning the selling
stockholders, including:

     -  The number of shares owned by each selling stockholder; and
     -  The number of shares offered by each selling stockholder.

Datalink.net has no knowledge of the intentions of any selling stockholder to
actually sell any of the securities listed under the columns "Shares Offered".
There are no material relationships between any of the selling stockholders and
Datalink.net.

     The information concerning the selling stockholders may change from time to
time and will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus.


                             PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

     The purpose of this prospectus is to permit the selling stockholders to
offer and sell up to 249,998 shares at such times and at such places as they
choose.  The decision to sell any shares, is within the sole discretion of the
holders thereof.

     The distribution of the common stock by selling stockholders may be
effected from time to time in one or more transactions.  Any of the common stock
may be offered for sale, from time to time, by the selling stockholders, or by
permitted transferees or successors of the selling stockholders, on the Nasdaq
National Market, or otherwise, at prices and on terms then obtainable, at fixed
prices, at prices then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to such
prevailing prices, or in negotiated transactions at negotiated prices or
otherwise.  The common stock may be sold by one or more of the following:

     *    On the American Stock Exchange or any other national common stock
          exchange or automated quotation system on which our common stock is
          traded, which may involve transactions solely between a broker-dealer
          and its customers which are not traded across an open market and block
          trades.

     *    Through underwriters, or through underwriting syndicates.

     *    Through one or more dealers or agents (which may include one or more
          underwriters), including, but not limited to:

          a.   Block trades in which the broker or dealer act as principal to
               facilitate the transactions.

          b.   Purchases by a broker or dealer as principal and resale by such
               broker or dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus.

          c.   Ordinary brokerage transactions.

          d.   Transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers.

     *    Directly to one or more purchasers

     *    A combination of these methods.

     The names of any underwriters or agents involved in the sale of the common
stock will be set forth in a prospectus supplement.

     In connection with the distribution of the common stock or otherwise, the
selling stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or
other financial institutions.  In connection with such transactions, broker-
dealers or other financial institutions may engage in short sales of shares in
the course of hedging the positions they assume with the selling stockholders.
The selling stockholders may also sell shares short and redeliver the shares to
close out such short positions.  The selling stockholders may also enter into
options or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial
institutions which require the delivery to such broker-dealers or other
financial institutions of the common stock, which shares such broker-dealers or
financial institutions may resell pursuant to this prospectus, as supplemented
or amended to reflect this transaction.  The selling stockholders may also
pledge the common stock registered hereunder to a broker-dealer or other
financial institution and, upon a default, such broker-dealer or other financial
institution may effect sales of the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus,
as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction.  In addition, any common
stock covered by this prospectus that qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144
under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this
prospectus.

                                       12
<PAGE>

     The selling stockholders or their underwriters, dealers or agents may sell
the common stock to or through underwriters, dealers or agents, and such
underwriters, dealers or agents may receive compensation in the form of
discounts or concessions allowed or re-allowed.  Underwriters, dealers, brokers
or other agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other such
persons to participate.  Any fixed public offering price and any discounts and
concessions may be changed from time to time.  Underwriters, dealers and agents
who participate in the distribution of the common stock may be deemed to be
underwriters within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any discounts or
commissions received by them or any profit on the resale of shares by them may
be deemed to be underwriting discounts and commissions thereunder.  The proposed
amounts of the common stock, if any, to be purchased by underwriters and the
compensation, if any, of underwriters, dealers or agents will be set forth in a
prospectus supplement.

                                       13
<PAGE>

     The selling stockholders will not engage in any stabilization activity in
connection with the Company's common stock, will furnish each broker or dealer
engaged by the selling stockholders and each other participating broker or
dealer the number of copies of this prospectus required by such broker or
dealer, and will not bid for or purchase any common stock of the Company or
attempt to induce any person to purchase any of the common stock other than as
permitted under the Exchange Act.

     Datalink.net will not receive any proceeds from any sales of the common
stock.

     Datalink.net shall use its best efforts to prepare and file with the
Commission such amendments and supplements to the registration statement and the
prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such
registration statement effective and to comply with the provisions of the
Securities Act with respect to the disposition of the common stock covered by
the registration statement for the period required to effect the distribution of
such common stock.

     Datalink.net is paying certain expenses (other than commissions and
discounts of underwriters, dealers or agents) incident to the offering and sale
of the common stock to the public, which are estimated to be approximately
$4,627.00.  If Datalink.net is required to update this prospectus during such
period, it may incur additional expenses in excess of the amount estimated
above.

     In order to comply with certain states' common stock laws, if applicable,
the common stock will be sold in such jurisdictions only through registered or
licensed brokers or dealers.  In certain states the common stock may not be sold
unless they have been registered or qualify for sale in such state or an
exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.

                           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

     Datalink.net has 55,000,000 authorized shares of stock, consisting of
50,000,000 shares of common stock, having a par value of $.01 per share, and
5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, having a par value of $.001 per share.

COMMON STOCK

     As of December 12, 2000, there were 15,181,220 shares of common stock
outstanding.  All such outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and
non-assessable.  Each share of common stock has an equal and ratable right to
receive dividends when declared by the Board of Directors of Datalink.net out of
assets legally available for that purpose and subject to the dividend
obligations of Datalink.net to holders of any preferred stock then outstanding.

     In the event of a liquidation, dissolution or winding up of Datalink.net
the holders of common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in the
assets available for distribution after payment of all liabilities, and subject
to any prior rights of any holders of preferred stock outstanding at that time.

     The holders of common stock have no preemptive, subscription, conversion or
redemption rights, and are not subject to further calls or assessments of
Datalink.net.  Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote in the
election of directors and on all other matters, submitted to a vote of
stockholders.

     Datalink.net's Articles of Incorporation provide that a holder of any class
or series of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors shall be
entitled to cumulate his votes, and may cast votes equal to the number of votes
which (except for cumulative voting) he would be entitled to cast for the
election of directors with respect to his shares of stock multiplied by the
number of directors to be elected.  Such shareholders may cast all such votes
for a single director or allocate such votes to two or more directors as such
shareholder sees fit.  Under Nevada law, to exercise the right to cumulative
voting, a shareholder must give Datalink.net written notice of his intent to do
so at least 48 hours before the time fixed for the annual meeting.  Such written
notice must be given to the president or secretary of Datalink.net.

PREFERRED STOCK

                                       14
<PAGE>

     As of December 12, 2000 there were 938,462 shares of preferred stock
outstanding.

     Preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series, and
the board of directors, without further approval of the stockholders, is
authorized to fix the dividend rates and terms, conversion rights, voting
rights, redemption rights and terms, liquidation preferences and any other
rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to each series of
preferred stock.  The purpose of authorizing the board of directors to determine
such rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions is to eliminate delays
associated with a stockholder vote on specific issuances.  The issuance of
preferred stock, while providing flexibility in connection with possible
acquisitions and other corporate purposes, could, among other things, adversely
affect the voting power of the holders of common stock and, under some
circumstances, make it more difficult for a third party to gain control of
Datalink.net.
