Kieth, Take a look at the Profile of SunGard at: biz.yahoo.com I think if it took months it would not matter, this company has what it takes to help market VWAP and FR hooked them, and we will take the ride sooner or later. I like the position and the marriage here and think the last line of the release is just a formality!!! Have to believe the time frame is not as important as the complete dominance of the system once launched, and trouble free. Alignment with a 3.2 billion dollar corporation is a huge step towards the ultimate goals of our company. With SunGard Institutional Brokerage Inc. committed to their clients and seeing the benefits of VWAP and the family on products ATG will be offering, and considering the types of services Sungard offers: sungard.com what a fit!!! Check it out. I hope this helps some. Charlie

my insider information #2306 is consistant with that 'next few weeks' line, as he told me they would not launch in August. what does bother me it their need for a marketing company. the way they've painted the picture in the past, everyone's beating down their doors to get on to VWAP. hiring a marketing company would suggest their penetration is not as ambitious as we've been led to believe. after all, they are not marketing to us consumers, rather industry players that Ashton is suppose to know so well. Could part of the reason for the delay have come from a lack of interest? I wonder...
