>>>Why not build on the Excite/Intuit partnership to do this instead of taking the time and money to do it in house? A very grey area in which I get the feeling CheckFree is trying to keep very quiet about. Maybe this is a hint: techstocks.com In an recent interview with CNBC, the Intuit CEO, Bill Harris said in questions directly relating to bill presentment "We will take it directly to our customers who use Quicken, Quick Books, et cetera but will also and have built the facilities to allow AOL, Yahoo!, Excite, Wells Fargo, and the various financial institutions to deliver the same functionality....CheckFree works on backend transaction processing, we work on front-end customer interfaces." ..Charlie, maybe I'm barking up the wrong tree (wouldn't be the first time), I have read the last few paragraphs of that interview a hundred times, but I'm still not sure what it means. Sometimes I have a hard time seeing the woods through all the trees. Benny(FWIW)
