Benny...back to that post you brought down from the Yahoo thread about that guys Quicken updating itself to include get bills online. If memory serves me correctly, If intuit was not the first to go into pilot with FP&L on bill presentment...using Just-In-Time/CKFR. They appear to be the first one to come out. I mean, why would they update the task bar on older versions of Quicken if they were not ready to go? I went in my Quicken98 Online Billing Site Last night just to see what was up....in there was the first message ever sent by Intuit to Quicken Customers. Still only one Biller in Pilot, but if the older Quicken programs are being updated to include bill delivery...it's my opinion..we are less than 30 days away from Intuits launch of Bill Concentration Efforts. About triple the time it would take for the user to sign up for service and get a confirmation password back in the mail. The Magic Begins. If they go live with the billers they have in there to sign up with...neither CKFR or INTU is a short sale canidate until the launch is announced, just in case you were considering it.[Official Short Warning from Michigan] Again do some DD on INTU...they are betting the farm on the web, bills are part of that. MECA needs Intuits' code, and Integrion needs CheckFrees' processing abilities...should say bunches about who is leading and who the wana be is.
