Filipowski's political connections will be an important factor in the success of DVIN, but I suspect that the Oprah connection could be even more important. This is looking more and more like a mini Softbank. I think I saw that the IPO is scheduled for the week of March 27th. Maybe they should increase the size of the offering so they can draw in more money. The success of these venture capital companies is related to their size and credibility. I agree that it will probably not match the WEBM coming out, but it won't be chopped liver either <G>. This Board for DVIN at SI will be interesting since it has existed before the Company IPO. I wonder how many boards, if any, were created before the companies have gone public?
