ILNK is being offered to Microsoft & Boeing employees...

Microsoft and Boeing employees have access to a website where they can get discounts on various products and services as an employee benefit.

In the 'Personal Communications' category - right there next to AT&T Wireless, AirTouch Paging, and MSN Internet, is "Personaone" (a service of I-Link communications)

I'm a user of the Boeing site (password required).
Clicking on it's "Persona" icon leads to an explanation of the package deal,
then clicking on a signup link leads to a customized version of this page...
personaone.com

It seems the employee discount service is provided by a company called employeesavings.com

They're a new (private) company with very capable executive staff...
employeesavings.com

The Employeesavings website says:

"Our clients are industry leaders who understand that staying ahead of the competition requires attracting and retaining the most qualified and talented personnel possible.

Successful companies like Microsoft, Boeing, 3M, Eddie Bauer, Nordstrom and Honeywell are just a few of the Fortune 1000 companies using employeesavings.com's ESVPs to help them do just that."

I called employeesavings customer service... they confirmed that Persona/ILNK is marketed to Microsoft and Boeing employees, and others.

This is GREAT marketing to some very significant customer bases.

This will certainly get ILNK noticed by Microsoft insiders - could get interesting.
