SmartAss Kids priced at 14, middle of range, no reconfirms

Now this is the one that's likely to suck... I'll leave my order in place just to show that I can't even get a bad one.

Ben Holmes at TheStreet.com sez:

Smarterkids.com
IPO: (SKDS:Nasdaq) Online retailer focused on children's educational books, toys and games, and software
Deal size: 4.5 million
Price range: 13 - 15
Led by: Hambrecht & Quist
My take: Online specialty retailers have been a mixed bag lately. Understand this is not eToys (ETYS:Nasdaq), but it has potential. Revenue was slow to start but is ramping quickly. Losses are considerable. Intel (INTC:Nasdaq) owns a slice of this deal. A small pop is what I'm thinking.
