I expect any rise in ad/e-commerce revenue to be offset by a corresponding rise in sales&marketing expense. Excites adds nothing to the bottom line; marginal costs are rising faster than marginal revenue. Its time for ATHM to jettison narrowband. This may mean spinning excite away, but first Bell has to go… When you use @Home also you become painfully aware of how slow and latent most server farms are. What good is more bandwidth if the bottleneck persists at origination? Message 12349636
