Puck, Are you of the belief that companies like Bear Stearn are not fully aware of some of the potentials for INSP, like Authorize.net? The aspect of this company that holds my imagination is the eventuality it possesses to bring all things together in a seemless suite of services for merchant, wireless, wireline, and broadband. We have the Verizon SuperPages contract for 5 years, when the Paperless Promotions gears up and takes off, that is a lot of ready-made merchants to advertise with. Those merchants, in turn, will be exposed to the Authorize.net applications and may be upsold (I could see sales incentives being offered to them). I could go on about these potentials and I would be completely ignoring other revenue potentials and products that have a chance to significantly impact the bottom line. Maybe that is why you feel Bear Stearns missed mentioning Authorize.net. As you begin to explore this company's potential, it is challenging to touch upon all its faucets succinctly.
