Andy, Thanks for the quick response! Sounds very interesting. I guess I didn't expect you to comment on any dealings with @HOME or RoadRunner unless they had already been announced. Too many employees have gotten in trouble for saying things they shouldn't on threads like these so I should be careful what I ask. But it is my feeling that your company would be able to gain dominance if it had access to customers that other services did not; or you offered games that other services did not. From this perspective I would wonder if your agreements with game makers could prevent them from offering their games through other services. Please correct me if I am missing something. The basics sound very good considering the appetite for such a service. I had underestimated the advertising revenues but that's a pleasant surprise. The Mpath Foundation sounds interesting. What kind of R&D budget do you have and how much proprietary technology have you developed? Also, from an investor's point of view, is their a ballpark date set for IPO? Thanks for your help, John
