CrazyI believe that this IPO will provide us with a preview of the upcoming Medsite.com IPO that we all now have a stake in. Medscapes' action will give us a benchmark that we can draw comparisons from. Although I am looking forward to watching the Medscape.com IPO I think Medsite.com might have a really big edge on them. Take a look at the new bookstore offered on Medscape's site...then look at Medsites book store! Medscape has just link to Medsite.com and is selling Medsite's books.... At the bottom of Medscapes page on books you will findPhone: (877) MED-SITE (633-7483), (212) 995-2633 (International) Fax: (212) 253-8696 Medscape is getting all of its revenue from advertising drugs and has no other products...their revenue for last year was $5 million with a loss of .71/share. Medsite.com's revenue was $15-18 million and they expect $50 million for the next year... I don't know if you noticed the recent change in Medsite.com Web page These are now the listed PAY products....
