Archie, We're all certainly entitled to our own opinions, however, I have to disagree with you on a few points. << This is now an internet stock. If they don't launch NOW, they are DEAD. >> By the internet stock component, I assume you are referring to CCI. Certainly it is important for them to "launch NOW", but a few weeks one way or the other is not, IMHO, going to make that kind of difference... unless, of course, people stop listening to music. Better to have the best and most unique website with all the proposed advantages than to rush out a "dud." With all the special advantages the site will have because of the tie-in with the telephony services and other already discussed factors, IMO no other site can compete. << No way they can have a steady growth in the next few years. >> I also must humbly disagree. You seem to be forgetting that not only is CCI in one of the most rapidly growing sectors and will continue to be so for quite a number of years, but TSIG has a telephony services business which services other industries and companies which it is intent on expanding rapidly... witness two of the new top management people and their backgrounds. So, yes, the internet stocks are "hot" now, but TSIG is far more than just a simple internet stock (regardless of the current perception and focus on CCI and the new website) if you review the new management's background and TSIG's other aspects and goals. So, Archie, and again IMHO, first you crawl, then you walk, and then you run. If you try and run from the start, you'll probably trip and none of us want to see that... especially management who's big payoff comes a few years down the road when they grow substantially, have solid growing earnings, and have a commensurate stock valuation. We lose... they lose. We win... they win. Nobody can argue they're a BB stock. Nobody can argue that they are essentially a startup or turn-around situation. But nobody can argue that Mr. Gordon has not done a superb job in such a short time as a dealmaker and put together a phenomenal (IMO) team to accomplish the goals required to make TSIG a leader in all the sectors it is involved in. To get a complicated website superior to anything available up and running in about 3 months is nothing short of a miracle... especially considering that the competition took over a year to just develop theirs. So let's be patient, give them the time and support they need, and reap our rewards a few years down the road. TSIG is not just a plain old internet stock. That's just my opinion, but I do agree with you that they must get the CCI website up and operational fast... but more because the "market" is looking and waiting for it... and that is an important factor to be considered at least short term. Best always, Marty
