Hi,

It isn't a big deal, but in all fairness to AMZN, Bezos was defining a new, broader area which encompasses all children's projects. I only pointed it out because some people on the thread (mis)interpreted it to mean that AMZN had become the #1 toyseller on the web in two weeks.

FWIW, I think there's a good chance AMZN nabs the #1 spot in toys fairly quickly, though I am not convinced it is a good business for them to be in.

cheers.

(incidentally, I sold AMZN, since it missed my revenue target, and put the proceeds into EXDS, which had, imo, an awesome report)
