Pugs,
I don't think it's a ruse. Did you read the PT recommendation that's floating around? In the 10/27 version, they outline the structure of the deal. Rollout to top 100,000 customers at a monthly charge of $20-100 per customer. BT and CCEE will share this revenue. Of course, the actual numbers, when announced, could be different but let's assume (I can always remember that that word has two s's) for a minute that they are correct. Revenue will be 2M-10M per month, likely split 50/50. This is high margin revenue. I don't have the report in front of me, but the best I can remember, this info came from discussions with BT, not CCEE. The report also stated that the total revenue (Softworks, dbExpress, Y2K and Garbe) would be in the area of 250M annually. |
