With energy costs rocketing skyward, PCLN could get hurt on inventory side, as well as with offering prices. Airlines ain't gonna sell for too much of a loss, regardless of how nmany PCLN waarants they get to sell into the PCLN float.

US Air= for every penny jet fuel goes up, their annual op costs increase $20 mill.

>>>Their business model is just a creative way of re-defining auctions, and at the core has nothing proprietary about it.>>>

Actually, it's a reverse auction, and I have come to believe that it's going to revolutionize a part of the economy.

And there is no competition ... unless you can show me a competitor that I may have missed ... as opposed to the regular auction space, which has tons of competition.
