I used to be in Retail merchandising way back when I was putting myself through college and it was not surprising when an item that was supposed to be in Housewares...showed up in the Sporting Goods department. It was taken off the shelf or.....not even put on the shelf and ended up in the warehouse until things got sorted out. In the case of the PMA product the buyer is the person who states what the product is and what department or section of the store it is to show up in. This is normally dictated by the product code or UPC code on the package. I belive that PMA could not produce the quantities that CompUSA wanted and pulled it back. This gives PMA a chance to get production in line and also repackage the product. As I remember, from earlier posts, this product has a big INC on the front and misleads the buyer as to the origin of the product. New packaging will correct this and give more attention to the PMA name. In either regard, I'm an investor who thinks that this is a great product and will do well, when PMA puts the whole package together in a professional manner. PMA is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have felt all along that PMA should be targeted to the online investor. I would much rather see it promoted on Etrade, Waterhouse, eSchwab, Suretrade, etc., than in a throw away add for CompUSA. Etrade signed up thousands of people through their advertising campaign where they offered $50 worth of free brokerage commissions. A free copy of PMA would work just as well. Give PMA to the online brokers at cost, or even for free. I think that if enough copies of PMA got into the hands of investors, BNEZ would rake in the big bucks on the quarterly updates. Ask the clerk in CompUSA or Staples how PMA compares to Windows On Wallstreet. He would probably tell you "They are both ok, but Doom II is a better game, with really gnarly far out graphics, Dude." DUH! CompUSA and Staples is just not the way to market this, IMO.
