Brad, IMO IDX will not become a play for sometime yet with regards to e-commerce. The scamsters have to figure how to beat the current system enough to warrant people wanting to pay for an at home finger scanner. Right now, at home shopping is in it's infancy and the single-pin readers are way too expensive. We are at least 3 years away, unless fraud runs ramped. Then I think the credit card companies will forge the next security system standard, which we all feel will be the fingerprint. I think there will be a company that will offer discounts to anyone that uses the newest security finger scanner and the growth will then begin. I believe in the above, which is why I still hold for the long term. Regards, Rob
