PPOD is NOT just an internet company! They are a delivery service. It is an entirely different business as I stated before. It would be like Walmart delivering toilet paper to your door. Yes, they could do it, but will they? Do you hate going to Walmart as much as you do grocery shopping? Do you always spend $150 at Walmart when you go? Gee, let PPOD deliver things you would normally buy at Walmart too!! The reverse would be like pizza delivery services opening up stores now. Two separate businesses. Yes, a local grocer could do it, but will he? I can't see him doing both. JMO PPOD is on the cutting edge. I don't see them as an internet stock but a great idea that NOBODY else in my city is doing!! GO PPOD!!

Hi Trey, Right. As a matter of fact they cost NOTHING. and for most that's what they will be worth. Remember when they use to display counters on them <ggg>! But if you want to play in the ball park you got to have a team. Ask BGP (Borders Group) how much a website costs! Ask Barnes and Noble (BKS)who first thought it would be easy to attract 100,000 websites like mine to sell their books for them aliveweb.com They aren't in the same Internet as Amazon. 100,00 Affiliates love AMZN because it helps us pay for our FREE websites.
