<<<<<<You indicate there are no competitors

.......integrion was the prime conpetitor--they signed a long term agreement with ckfr--have you read the entire thread? from beginning to end? if not, do so, it will answer your ?'s.

.......i guess msft could always come out of the woodwork. but it seems that bankers aren't too interested in bill gates--i wonder why?

..........bte = you need to sign long term contracts now to get the cash in the next few years as the industry swells and lots of folks pay bills online. ckfr has almost all of the major banks with long term contracts. there won't be a lot of profit with the few % that join any competitor--economy of scale.

........hell, i don't even pay bills online myself! but i wasn't even online 1 year ago and i just started trading online 6 months ago--and i am ahead of at the curve. yet, i bought cisco before i ever used their services (being online) and look at the stock.

........if you are a timer--wait until the rally. as for me i buy this baby when it is low and will hold on--bought in at 17 and holdding.

........good luck
