Let's see ELOT undercut corner mini markets by getting a 4 or 4.5% cut of lottery sales (due to lower overhead) instead of the usual 5% and see how quickly state lottery officials reassess their objections. Or let them see if the internet increases waning sales.

And Merrill Lynch is currently going through hell right now trying to keep their commissioned brokers happy while meeting the internet competition. Well I wouldn't bet on the commissioned brokers.

The internet is an irresistable force due to its cost and convenience, and internet lottery seems to lend itself really well to this venue. I think Netbank is a stupid idea, but ELOT has a niche on the internet.

And,Auric, ELOT is at the top of the "Hot" list.
