I checked out one of the kiosks at Santa Monica Place...fairly well done...large, intuitive...many video monitors, etc. Still, no one but me went up to check it out on a very crowded Saturday night! Not sure if the concept will work, but it's an interesting concept to target specific geographic bases and provide free service...depolying a "radio" business model to internet space...never heard of anything like that before, but not sure the time or the deployment is right. I don't think it will affect Earthlink quite yet, but I still worry it's evolution might...or some other interesting idea. Just don't see what Earthlink owns at the moment accept happy customers...would rather see loyal customers...but who knows? Edge

Bob - this market sucks, plain and simple. And yes, I'm just hanging on though admittedly not terribly happy about my holdings. (ELNK et al.) Bumpy ride definitely. Question is...what's next? Got a crystal ball? Peter P.S. <<Maybe, if the market drags it back down near Sprint's price, I'll join you and put it in a drawer for five years. Good luck.>> I take it to me the split adjusted $22.50. God, I hope not! (C'mon Bob, buy a couple of shares...it's only money!)
