Did anyone listen to the call? Thoughts from the crowd? Anyone?

Wonder why all the revenue growth didn't help the bottom line more. Margins falling? Expenses out of control?

I'm sure aggressive investors expected them to do better than .12. I don't believe we will see any significant upward revisions in earnings estimates. Stock is selling around 20 times sales. Very steep, especially considering many other players are entering this market.

go, # customers increased at double the revenue increase
this means trouble, imho

each customer is paying LESS this quarter than last

combine this with fixed overheads and expanded product line and there are severe storm clouds on the horizon

my prediction was loss this quarter, but it appears that 'deals' and potentially lower prices attracted new customers

no deal making or accounting will protect them from Q2 losses, imho

no position, though if the stock was 48 instead of around 78 at peak, i would have gladly shorted

good luck
