Hi Redneck and other bruised and battered former GNETers. I wonder if INSP will continue to retain the lofty No.8 Media Metrix position very long.
Today, Beautiful Rudi posted message No. 25720 on this thread. It concerns an e-mail announcement, dated March 29, to SI members, advising that beginning April 1, there will be a charge of $9.99 per month for Screamer, the streaming real time portfolio tracker which, heretofore, was provided as a vaunted free service. The e-mail indicated tech support and billing for Screamer will be provided by Money.net. I am unable to copy and paste the text of the e-mail, but I assume all members received an identical message. The message anonymously bore a "signature" of The Silicon Investor Team. Will Real Time Quotes suffer a similar fate?
I continue to be perplexed by INSP's failure to respond to inquiries concerning its status with Digeo Broadband. Today I visited Digeo's web site. Digeo is a Wired World Company, meaning, of course, that it is a Paul Allen company. The site shows no mention of GNET or INSP as one of the founders. It simply lists VV (wholly owned by PA) and Charter. The profile of members of the Digeo team contains references to many companies where they held leadership positions, but neither GNET nor INSP appears in that recitation. Why is INSP being so secretive about this subject. It either is a 19% equity member of Digeo or it is not. GNET was a 19% equity member of Broadband Partners, Digeo's predecessor, prior to the merger. Are INSP shareholders not entitled to the truth?
