Glenn, is the yr-yr comparison valid? You know, "same store sales" basis. Sorry to butt in, but no, it is not valid. Amazon was able to attract a large number of customers last X-mas, since then it has not attracted a single net new customer in the USA. Having said that, last year AMZN saw flat sales compared to the previous quarter. If they indeed attain the $830 revenue estimate just announced that would be an increase of about 4% over the previous quarter which is quite decent. At this rate of progress, they will never be able to repay their debts. That looks pretty much as a given, if you mean out of general revenue. I think Amazon will issue shares and retire the debt sooner or later, at a convenient time when dilution would be minimized....
