tonyt, can you understand what is meant when someone says growth is trending lower vs. absolute numbers? This means, if you have sales of 1 million and next qtr you have 2 million, thats 100%. If the following qtr is 3 million you are trending lower in terms of growth rates. This is not the same thing as the numbers coming in lower in absolute terms - sheesh!!

How can this be? Q2 will have Auction Revenue. Q2 will have sales to Summer
buyers of books and CD's for the beach. Q2 will have sales of Summer supplies
(sunscreen, etc) through Drugstore.com Q2 will have sales of Summer pets throught
Pets.com

How can Q2 revenue possibly not be greater than Q1.
