Yes, Jing, the auction count growth rates are slowing down somewhat, but we all know eBay can't grow revenues 50 percent every 3 months forever.

Yahoo only reported 15 percent growth for the past 3 months, and Amazon will be luck to have seen 20 percent growth over the Christmas quarter.

Ebay is doing MUCH better than that.

I expect that we will see 35 to 40 percent 3 month growth for the April to June quarter, and then the summer quarter may show less than that, with the Christmas quarter bumping up again.

Also, I expect eBay to be over 2 million auctions mid next week.

(The counts will fall tomorrow, as they always do on Sundays, and then pick up Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.)
