Thank you, it does take time and plenty of money and alliances.

Please note that in my post last night I made an unfortunate error.
I meant to use the word 'from' rather than 'for' in my sentence dealing with information that seems to come (directly or indirectly) from company sources.

While this ad does come from GMGC, it fits in with IMHO the market desire for non Microsoft solutions, for any of a number of reasons.

I do appreciate learning about the convertible issue apparently being played out. I have an investment in a company that is trading slightly above cash value in erp space where a number of us can't figure out the reason...this gives me a different value perspective.

Thank's again.

Agreed. No direct competition but the hill could become an island in the next 12 months, especially after Lucent announcement (www.lucent.com , see Personal Assistant) which will not charge for airtime, now market may not care, but they might.

Almost forgot, please see message #5220.
