Is anyone here using "GoldPass" and could you describe your experiences? I just listened to yesterday's conference call and it sounds like RG has high hopes for this product as a stable recurring revenue stream. Also sounds like they will be adding features but they didn't want to go into detail yet. Only 125,000 paying users so far but we will need to watch that growth rate closely. That's $15 million annual revenue there.

Glad to hear that advertising only makes up 12% of total revenue. And the remaining 88% is split pretty evenly between consumers and business. That's a nice mix. Looking at $300 million total revenue 2001 with some profitability, 12 to 16 cents per share I think I remember. And "our motto is to under-promise and over-deliver." I knew that but it's good to hear him say it.

Painful pull back in stock price right now for many reasons. But I've decided to put away a bunch of shares in my IRA as a long term hold. Everything i-net related feels speculative right now but no reward without risk. And with RG in charge I feel good about Real as my only pure i-net investment. If any companies succeed I think Real will.

Hanging in there. Rory
