How about shorting ESTM after it's quiet period run. It seem like it has a weak business model and their commericals are a joke.

Just heard on the conference call (Exide NYSE: EX)denied any criminal investigations. Guess they do not consider the Attorney general state of Alabama as an investigator and prosecutor of fraud cases. WOW Case Number CV 96-348 The state of Alabama. Motion to Intervene. Dated 10/6/99 Blurb; Statement of facts 4. Exide Manufatures and sells automobile and other type of batteries throughout Alabama and the United States. These sales are completed through local auto parts stores and other retail stores such as K-Mart, ect. Exide also manufactures and sells or has sold batteries to certain entities which bear the label of the purchasing business which then, in turn markets the product at retail under its corporate name I.E. Sears 5. Beginning in or near 1993 and continuing to the present, Exide has manufactured and sold its products to East Alabama and other retailers in Alabama. These batteries were represented and sold as " new or first quality" . However, the bateries sold by Exide to East Alabama and unwittingly resold as new batteries to Alabama consumers, includingthe state of Alabama itself, were actually used or refurbished items which had been cleaned, recharged and relabled as original manufactured products. Also it is alleged that Exide knowingly and intentionly mislabled batteries to inaccuratly reflect their cranking amperes, misrepresented the effect warranty period of the batteries and otherwise incorectly labeled batteries as to their characteristics and proper use. Any on that would like a copy of the entire case please P.M. me

WEBB: Target $40 in one year! EBI Securities Corporation Updates Report on WEBB Interactive Services, Inc. DENVER, Nov. 4 /PRNewswire/ -- The following is being issued by EBI Securities Corp., a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, CRD Number 16184: EBI Securities Corporation issued a new report today on WEBB Interactive Services, Inc. (Nasdaq: WEBB - news). EBI gives the stock a STRONG BUY rating and a $40 price target. In the update, EBI notes that the company's acquisition of netIgnite has provided the company with aptitudes in XML based technologies, which they believe, are highly relevant to the future of Internet commerce and communication. EBI added that the company has been able to refine its focus into two distinct markets: the provisioning of small to medium sized financial institutions with internet capabilities and the facilitation of local commerce for businesses and consumers utilizing XML technologies. EBI believes that WEBB's products in each of these venues have attracted considerable interest from significant distribution partners. EBI's report suggests that WEBB's market capitalization compared to companies like Digital Insight (Nasdaq: DGIN - news) and Nfront (Nasdaq: NFNT - news) on the banking side, and Commerce One (Nasdaq: CMRC - news) on the commerce side make the stock a compelling value on a relative basis. Information and statements contained herein, other than historical information, should be considered forward looking, which involve risk and uncertainties. EBI Securities Corp., its officers, directors and affiliates may maintain positions in the securities referenced, which may change at any time without notice. EBI is a market maker in the common stock of WEBB. EBI acted as managing underwriter of a public offering of WEBB's common stock and warrants in 5/96.
