USAB is building value as a Virtual Bank. From the CNN story: " And there are only a handful of virtual banks, though many traditional banks offer Internet banking. Many of the biggest virtual-banking participants -- such as WingspanBank.com, a Bank One (ONE) subsidiary; TeleBank, which E*Trade (EGRP) is buying; and Security First Network Bank, which the Royal Bank of Canada bought last year -- are online banks with offline partners. " With the unfolding of broad bandwidth Internet content at the website USAB is looking at new ways to attract customers... ...perhaps even those that may buy them out. These are very good levels still, to buy in to USAB.

Hoper, I like that USAB is early to Virtual Banking.... Early, innovative, and creative. CNN report sites a couple very important aspects of the Virtual Banking Industry: " To date they've only scratched the surface of the potential market. But if the success of Internet brokers is anything to go by, virtual banking could catch on. That's certainly what the industry hopes. " Huge Market Virtually (NPI) Undeveloped ...Enormous Growth Potential.
