>>>Upstart payment companies, such as CyberCash and CheckFree Corp., face an increasingly hostile competitive environment and rapidly advancing technologies that threaten to undermine some of their initial competitive advantages in the market. As a result, it's likely that this sector will continue to underperform the rest of the e-commerce industry. ...Upstart? Are they trying to insult us? CheckFree was created in 1981, if this company is an upstart, so is Microsoft(1976). ...'rapidly advancing technologies', I think this is also incorrect, I think vision, quality, and service will win. Technology has a minor role in success. ...And one last note, IMO (In my opinion) CyberCash is an internet security company, not a payments processor. Benny
