Re:"Also, I think Bezos was just saying that stuff about the stock volatility to protect him from class action lawsuits"

Yes, particularly as with earnings out now he can be counted on to lighten his own position significantly over the coming week or two. He would not want risk looking like he dumped a bunch of shares just before a serious downturn.....

With Jan down ''markedly'', what are they expecting in Feb/Mar that will propel sales
above the 4th qtr?

Software! The price of one piece of software is more expensive than a book or CD..
probably easy to pump up revenue with that.

This is true but with one month already gone in the quarter, I suspect they were blowing smoke regarding a sequential Q to Q increase. The wording was we "believe."
