> Wit customers will be in but not with the 600,000 shares Right, I was also just reviewing the prospectus and noticed that 300k shares will be offered to business partners of Engage and 300k to employees of Engage as well. I wonder how many shares Wit will get allocated for their regular account holders, the whole IPO is only 6million and I'm sure the 3 underwriters are going to want the majority of the remaining 4.8million for their customers. >>Also I think that there are 65,000 shareholders in CMGI. If even 1/3 of the shareholders are eligable and open their accounts the odds are 1 in 3 that anyone will get any.<< Hmmm thats interesting and encouraging since I think the number of people who went through the pain of opening a Wit account is probably less than 1/3 (just a guess) - this may end up being an even crapshoot for us. Where did you get the 65k shareholder figure?
