I stopped by 200 Wellington (AT&T Building) and checked out the Inet kiosk. I'm very impressed. While the kiosk at that location seems to be more for display/promotion, I can see these kiosks getting a lot of consumer attention when placed in high traffic commercial areas - such as the airports, hotels, and malls that CPY is targeting.

Regarding chapters.ca, revenue will be generated on a commission basis for sales made via the Grapevine. Revenue generated through advertising is additional. I don't have any figures for either of the arrangements.

All the Best
Marty P
