It cost the company $7 million to sign up those users, and that was without the benefit of distribution agreements like those now in place with Compaq and others, Balter said. Spending seven times as much over the next year and a half should enable the company to double its customer base ``or maybe even hit a million (customers) within that time period,' he said.

Isn't it a bit disturbing that even with distribution agreements, this ceo believe that it will cost 7x to raise the customer base 2x?
