re: big 2006/dierctor buys up Am watching this one and the thread is interesting. Keen followers are probably aware that Eddie Smith is buying up millions of the shares OM. Eddie Smith's involvement is really what triggered my interest here.

Eddie Smith - Non Executive DIRECTOR
Eddie was appointed as a Non-Executive Director of Carpathian Resources Ltd on 1 April 2004. Eddie is a Perth based investor with investments in resource type companies, he takes an active note in his investments including Directorships. His past Directorships have included in companies with activities not only in Australia but in the Middle East and Indonesia.
Eddie’s present Directorships include Australian Worldwide Exploration Ltd (AWE) and Non-Executive Chairman of Impress Ventures Limited (ITC) and Jupiter Energy Limited (JPR), prior to joining AWE’s Board Eddie was Chairman of Omega Oil NL, AWE made a friendly takeover of Omega Oil NL in late 1999, AWE is an ASX 200 Company with a market capitalisation in excess of $700 million. Impress is a junior ASX resource Company with oil and gas exploration activities in the Cooper Basin.
So looks like a buy on the basis of his interest and reading past well informed posts.
