Its official. OMKT announcing new partners and customers. This weekend .I think. Click on second link.
news pending by: AugustWest79 (36/M/Denver Colorado) 27798 of 27804 Even if the recent action has nothing to do with the buyout rumors, we might still see some fireworks this week due to developments at Spring Internet World 99. April 12-16 techweb.com
whats expected: news.com "e-commerce software vendor Open Market will name new partners and customers." [CommerceTone?]
this is interesting: "E-commerce start-up Econex will unveil its "e-commerce dial-tone" service, an end-to-end Internet commerce solution for small to midsized companies."
"Getting small businesses into e-commerce is emerging as a major theme at next week's Internet World trade show in Los Angeles, where a slew of startups will join industry heavyweights like Intel in targeting small companies.
"It's a huge, huge business opportunity," said Laurie McCabe, small-business analyst at Summit Strategies. "Finally, the big vendors are waking up."
Battle for small business e-commerce solutions heating up as this is now seen as a huge opportunity for vendors. Once again OMKT leads and the other vendors are just waking up. OMKT is by far the Number 1 in this business segement as recent Dataquest study shows. Perhaps now all those CSP's will start paying off big time as well!
A buyout is not our only chance for significant stock price appreciation here folks! But it is a very real and distinct possibility. Any one of a dozen companies (ORCL, PSFT, SAP, IBM, MSFT, LCOS, AOL, to name but a few) would love to have OMKT's access to the small as well as enterprise e-commerce market. The bidding war concept someone espoused recently certainly has a nice appeal to it <ggg>.
