You are right, that $1000 target snafu was completely inexcusable, probably bordering on criminally negligent.

Rick,

What did you get in and out at ?

I got in near the low at $54, but got nervous feet. I did not want to hold this overnight, nor wait any longer.....I figured heck, in 10 minutes or less it could shoot up to $120 or drop down to $10, and after the whacking I got the last week, I felt it best to run away, run away , run away ( as the song goes ). I got out at $56 1/2. I know +2.5 aint nothing to get in an uproar over, but it's a heck of alot better the what the alternative could be. I also would not be surprised to see this in the $70's or $80's tomorrow, but I hope Anthony and his friends whack this one back down to earth....yesterdays movement was just too obvious...

Good luck

QXL.com Inks Deal with BT Cellnet for WAP Auction
15:40 PM GMT on Apr 19, 2000

QXL.com announced Tuesday that it will partner BT Cellnet in a deal that will make its online auctions available via BT's Genie Internet wireless platform.

The deal calls for a specially created service, tailored for WAP mobile phones, but it will include thousands of items and will greatly extend the reach of QXL.com's auctions. Users will be able to submit bids direct from their mobile phones.

Jim Rose, chief executive officer of QXL.com, said his firm was the first to host co-branded online auctions with BT Cellnet.

"This agreement provides both QXL.com and BT Cellnet customers with a fun, easy and convenient way to access and keep up to speed on QXL.com's latest auctions," said Rose.

Speaking for Genie Internet, General Manager Brian Greasley said that 600,000 customers have already signed up for the WAP service, and the number is growing by 4,000 a day.

Genie Internet is a Mobile Internet Service Provider, the first with fully operational, commercially available WAP services in the U.K. when it launched in January this year.

In March, BT formed a global mobile Internet business based on Genie Internet, and this summer it plans to become the first mobile network in the U.K to offer commercial services based on a General Packet Radio Services (GPRS) network, following a 500 person trial in January.

QXL.com operates across Europe in nine languages and currencies, enabling sellers to locate and trade with buyers on a 24/7 basis. Via QXL, buyers can bid for computer software and hardware, consumer electronics, household appliances, collectibles and even for packaged holidays.
