Steve: What's your thoughts on "free Internet companies in the UK"???? I think the top 3 are (1) FreeServe (1.2 million subscribers - owned by a huge retailer named Dixons), (2) BT ClickFree (don't know too much about them) and (3) X-stream (XSNI-Nasdaq) (400,000 subscribers). I understand the 3 of those have edged AOL-UK out of 1st. place and forced them to drop their subscription fees by 40%.?? I own a few shares of X-stream. They were the first to offer free Internet service in the world and signed a US$28 million deal with Lucent Technology. Looks like they have aspirations moving into the European Market - 370 million people.!!!

china.com/freeserve - getting ipos shares is difficult and investors should be careful not to place market orders on these sorts of stocks (which basically means you pay whatever price the stock is at when your order is executed)
