EDFY buyout was a chatroom rumor. IMO it makes ZERO sense. EDFY is a dead company with only 1 significant customer: Chase Manhattan. Chase will always do the opposite of arch-rival Citibank, so it is not surprising that Chase went with EDFY.

EDFY's technology is also completely different from S1's. EDFY is using what is basically an old OS/2-based Interactive Voice Response system, that has been shoehorned onto a far less stable OS (NT). EDFY's system is based on a Thin-Server model.

S1 uses a high-end, stable and scalable UNIX system (HP-UX with Virtual Vault), and a Fat Server architecture, which IMO, is far more scalable and feature-rich. More details on the Fat Server concept are on S1's web site.

Best regards!
