Hey Zach,

<<Has anyone considered the possibility that AMZN is estimating $250
Mil in sales (contrary to the $300-$400 Mil whispers)so that they can
either have an upside surprise at the actual announcement, or so they
can pad the next quarter's numbers, as MSFT and some other companies
are rumored to do? I think that the last thing that this co. wants
is to show a sequential decline in sales, and there are certainly
ways around that.>>

Did you ever consider that maybe Amazon is estimating 250mil in sales because that is how much they sold?
Good grief!
I'm beginning to think that if AMZN issued a press release that declared bankruptcy tomarrow the stock would continue up as speculators guess that the move would allow the company to post a much larger than expected decrease in earnings next quarter...
