A big seller on Island because the results didn't meet the forecast. Dialog changed the pricing structure from per minute to trying to charge according to the value of the information leading to a strike by their biggest customers. They are getting quite enthusiastic over on yahoo messages about this. If they can't deliver then this would be a very cheap purchase for a search engine. Dialog actually have access to a very valuable database, yahoo, lycos or exite could use their overpriced stock to buy this company and then give the information away for free subsidized by advertising. Another purchaser could be reuters. The guy who runs this company is in his early thirties and has very little credibility left after this blow-up but you see from the charts it keeps coming back!
