I am worried that just when EBPP becomes a killer app finally....that transpoint (MSFT) comes in aggresively and eat CKFR's lunch. It has been true for 3Com. They have ceased to be a real comany and instead have become a development house for Cisco. Everytime they develop something new and create a niche market for themselves and think that Cisco won't bother to enter. As soon as the opportunity becomes big, Cisco would come in and eat their lunch.

>>>I think Transpoint has been a joke up to this point. You know how many subs TP has???? I don't, but under 100K is a safe bet. Well you know Benny, back on 9/30/1998 CheckFree had 2.5 Million subscribers...now 15 months later they have 3.0 Million. Transpoint had NONE in April of 1999. Don't you think 100k is too much considering that 80% of the market growth "should" be concentrated here? It/This bothered me to no end last quarter.

I think Transpoint has been a joke up to this point. You know how many subs TP has???? I don't, but under 100K is a safe bet. They have one less sub than they had yesterday since I cancelled now that they are going to charge a monthly fee. I'll keep my monthly fee at Yahoo. I'd really like to know how many others cancelled now that they make you pay for not being able to pay any bills through them. While it was free it was worth the email every six months hearing how they were going to get more billers any day now.
