From ma9132,Yahoo GMGC Club board:
I wrote Wendy to get more infor about the "audio ads" and she answered:
"Thanks for your comments on the conference call. The discussion about
banner ads revolved around the idea of creating "audio ads" for web based
services. When a user would call up their Quicken.com voice service, for
example, they might hear a short audio ad for a financial service provider.
This is how General Magic may offset some of the costs of providing a free,
Internet-based service. The goal is to make them short and sweet, not
annoying.

We are also currently running web banner ads on a variety of websites to
market the Portico service. These have no audio, they are just plan banner
ads. I hope this helps to clarify for you."
How will a "free-internet based service" benefit the small investor(little people)
Thanks

Very truly yours,
