John,

Hard to say if this is a "mini Yahoo". Wouldn't that be great for all of us.

The news is unexpected, but we've been lacking in news for so long I'm trying to remain objective about it. If this is the beginning of a series of releases that would be great.

The first question that came to my mind after reading it is when will FNTN.COM be updated? That might/should be just around the corner as well, and that could be bigger than this.

In no way am I bashing, but I need to revert back to my logical/conservative side and say one thing; and that is China is still very...how shall I say...unstable. There are many companies that have been trying to bust into the market over the past several years. Many have lost millions in the process. I have been doing some DD on a company that has experienced a case of downright fraud when working in China. I'm just saying...it's something to think about, and for management to protect themselves and us from.

FWIW, I'm still long with a few shares.
DRat.

Chinese programmers are rated the best and a little bit of Chinese wisdom on the board should also help!

Hi John, Guangdong province is near Hong Kong.
This is a premier business environment.
My wife's family has been doing business with
mainland China for a few years, its booming.
By 2004 China is projected to be only second to the
US in internet subscribers.
This is a much better acquisition then I had hoped for.
Looking at Corey's track record we certainly can expect
more of these surprises in the future.
