NTBK is growing fast, about 50% a quarter.

It amounted to, I believe, 15,000 in five month. CF added 170,000 in three month. Just trying to make things look brighter. <G>

It takes time to get every biller into production. It took BellSouth a year to test their pilot. Good post on it at ragingbull.com So one day we'll certainly see a flood of all those billers going into production.

Sometimes I ask myself a silly question. Would the world be different if instead of going after portals, or in addition to it, CF went portal itself? Or may be it is not late yet?
Now, in hindsight, it looks like there was not much to loose anyway. CF could put banks' logos on its site. Even put a message that some banks may give this same service cheaper or for free to make banks feel better. And besides, if Integrion banks could go and form Exchange, why couldn't CF go portal.

The portal would be up and running long time ago. It would be a great way to raise awareness about EBPP among general public. We can only guess who would come. Internet is a funny thing. I remember seeing people bidding on EBay site for $5 dollar items, while EBay's service alone was more than $5 and goes on the top of the purchase price.

Just early morning rumblings.
