Aus - I saw that link posted on another thread, so I copied it here. I don't know how reliable their numbers are. If they ARE reliable, then maybe this counts for why SNDK dropped in price this winter.

Re: one.channel data A quarter or so ago they put out a release talking about PDA sales results. The figures were totally at odds with easily available industry data. I and others called them on it. Turns out they only track a handful of pure-play online retailers, that's it (but they did not make that obvious). They look like an outfit that is trying to become a subscription-based tracking service a la AC Nielsen or PCData. So far I'd consider anything from them nothing beyond a data point, and based on the two press releases I've seen so far, not particularly reliable points at that. Andre
