From my understanding, PCLN gets more than two thirds of its so called revenue from travel related activities! I would expect EXPE to make major announcements regarding their strategy after the quiet period expires in a few weeks. Don't sleep on EXPE...they will not remain a "travel agency"! And if they do, they will become the dominant travel agency! Don't you all think PCLN is overextending itself...especially when you get into naming your price for groceries?! Personally, I think Wal-Mart will wipe out this grocery business stuff with its entrance into the field and its overdue internet debut! As for naming your price for mortgages, the average Joe Blow doesn't even know how to price a mortgage...it's going to be like shooting fish in a barrel and inevitably backfire on numerous would-be homeowners! PCLN seems to be taking the approach of being everything to everybody, while the internet encourges specialization and doing a few things extremely well! $weet Dream$ $tar.
