mad2, what company doesn't have competition? Nothing will be free...the marketplace will have to be carved out. This is a major reason GUMM will make their bones as a private label manufacturer and later inject their proprietary products as market acceptance and finances allow.

There are plenty of large companies out there who don't mind facing off w/ S B....S B no longer own the rights to nicotine gum and is just prolonging the agony. Their only beef now appears to be in the packaging... I doubt that will slow GUMM much.

Private label profit margins are good (proprietary obviously even better).
