to my sometimes naive mind the most influential aspect of the AXP announcement is the FREE UNLIMITED bill processing. if AXP does not reverse it's stand on this it means a significant change in the structure of ebpp revenue has been defined. american express is aggressive enough at marketing down, at it's discretion, to assure all competitors will have to present ebpp for free to the consumer. this means the entire cost of bill processing will have to be absorbed by the bill presenters, in some fashion. do we want to force "our logo" in front of the customers of the co.s who are paying for our services so dearly. i am not at all against our logo being displayed to assure the best quality is available at this site, but i think we should not step on our customers image . i feel that intel made itself more important than the unit it was a part of and that is why i take objection to the suggestions we advertise like intel. IMVHO would appreciate some takes on what this can do to CKFR position and future. pete
