Hi Tom! Yup always here with my little nest egg tucked away. With regards to some of the pessimism regarding medsite, I'll offer the following. Medsite may be a pleasant surprise to us this fall. Rec'd from the "Internet Investor" last night. as follows: 4. WEBMD in Perfect Health by Scott Greenberg Related Stories: streetadvisor.com After a few months of rest, Healtheon/WebMD [HLTH] is looking better than ever. Why? The stock has steadied amid negative press and merger uncertainty and is poised to explode as these issues become resolved. Result: We are maintaining our buy rating on the company. Right now it's easy to dismiss Healtheon, but this makes it a perfect time to buy -- just ask founder Jim Clark and hedge fund guru George Soros. Once the mergers are completed, the synergies and cost savings should begin to materialize, and Healtheon's stock should rebound. As each quarter passes, Healtheon will make a clearer case to the Street on how it will dominate eHealth. It has superior management, ample funding to reach profitability, and a business that benefits patients, doctors, and insurance companies. Healtheon, however, is not focusing merely on the net. It recently completed a deal with AOL and Time Warner. The Health Network, which will become WebMD Television in the fall, will be distributed to 60 percent of Time Warner's audience, as well as to 3 million of Adelphia Communications' [ADLAC] subscribers. This will obviously help Healtheon with publicity, but it should do more than that. By being on TV, a broader reach of people -- including those not necessarily comfortable with the Internet -- will grow to know and trust Healtheon and its value-added services.
