Nope, it's new as of today. What the note doesn't tell you is the epic battle that would be fought if there's any risk that sebl loses the account to vantive. Can you imagine? Schwab's on the board of directors for sebl. The IS department will probably strongly favor vantive based on the feelings they have about Vantive and Sebl technology, but I doubt it's a battle that they or Vantive can win. I doubt we'll hear much about it until mid next year because I doubt that the schwab IS folks will allow a sebl replacement of vantive support until scopus is successfully disintegrated. (I think that's a great term for the merger. :-)) It will be an interesting battle. I doubt Vantive can win, but if they do wow! TD
