Rob: Adoption is going to be much quicker now...I think that the FDC portion is going to give us size, the Transpoint portion marketing, and the Citi portion access to immediate subscriber growth. Still a very slow process, IMO. Yes, FDC helps on cost. Transpoint was basically invisible to the consumer; potential there is still a function of bank and biller adoption rates, which may speed up some now that there's only one vendor. Citi's contribution here is almost nil. They're still largely doing their own thing. Hate to admit it, but ad spending by "scan & pray" types has done more for public visibility of auto bill payment than anything over the last 6 months. Charlie
