Gary, I will pass on what I was told by Don regarding the Nasdaq deal and Intel. There never was a nasdaq deal per say, nasd was going to recommend us to their top 100 companies - but they expected the companies to pick up the cost. There was misunderstanding in that Intel wanted nasd to pay the costs - indefinitely. Nasd agreed to pay first 3 months, and Intel held firm. So the deal got lost. However, and this is the most important - we did not lose the deal to BCST. Broadcast.com is doing an internet service - our *potential* deal with them was for telephony service. So an entirely different deal. BCST is not a competitor in the normal sense of the word. Yes, they offer a similar service in one aspect, and one only - they offer Investor Relations over the net. We offer it over the phone (but I understand that we will be offering on the net at some time, if not already in the works) and we offer other services as well.
