Dave, You could be correct, however, I can find nothing truly innovative or unique about this web site other than the fact they may have a capable management team and an idea that may place them ahead of the curve at least temporarily. A patent pending on "instant gratification" may in essence be worthless and unprotectable given others considering similar offerings. One of these is Starnet Communications who is expected to have several thousand venues within a few years offering lottery services. In addition, all players in this arena will need to find a way to transact business via strong ecash solutions that curtail chargeback activity which is running high in the online gaming industry and even higher in adult entertainment. As a case in point, Providian Bank recently one of the banks hit with online casino player defaults may no longer allow their cards to be used for online gaming. I am still looking for a ray of sunshine here, but I am just not convinced as yet this company will be capable of delivering on their ambitions, all legal matters aside. Worldvision will very diligently need to promote the virtues of this stock and if they do so in a manner consistent with CAOL,(now down to $0.40) CSIN, (now down to $0.25) DFNL, etc. ABET may never evolve into a money-making vehicle or least one that is sustainable. So, these are my honest thoughts.
