Time of Bezos speech today? All bunkered down at the Ritz-Carlton in SF thestreet.com ++++ Suzanne Galante, staff reporter, the Street.com, 8:40 AM, Jan 14 "Searching for Secrets at the Ritz-Carlton" SAN FRANCISCO -- The Ritz-Carlton hotel was stinking with secrets. "I could smell them even before I walked in. Donaldson Lufkin & Jenrette was hosting its Internet Conference here, and the press wasn't invited. And where the press is barred, the place has got to be seething with juicy tidbits." ... "Back at the Fourth Post. I met up with Josaphat Tango, who works for the VC firm Highland Capital Partners. Tango's firm invested in eToys and NextCard, an online credit card processing company. As for eToys, "it's not 'if' an IPO, but 'when.' " He talks as one who has known the Net rapture, mentioning Amazon.com (AMZN:Nasdaq) in exalted tones, talking of shifting tides in commerce. "There's been a great turnout. Given the retail interest of e-commerce, it's not a question any more of will this take off," he said, "but which one to back." He also says there's nothing secretive happening on the third floor." ... +++++ We'll know soon enough. Rumoured to be in the PM Pacific, so no News till after today's close. David.
