- Have you compared PTVL to IFLY? Feel free to post on the IFLY board. And I even hope PTVL goes to $100/share.

- Here's why: Several people have found Preview Travel to be more expensive than IFLY. Here's one reason:

- Revenues: PVTL - $1.2 mill per month; versus IFLY: $1.0 mill per month

- Advertising: PVTL: $9 mill per year; IFLY: $400,000 per year

- Bottom Line: While revenues are about even, PVTL's advertising budget is 20 times greater.

- No wonder IFLY makes money; and PVTL loses $1 mill+ a month

- PS: IFLY's internet site is in beta.
