re: the viability of pay to shop site:

Yahoo poster reported that there are currently 66.5M registered shoppers at the major pay-to-shop superstores (Costco, Sam's Club & BJ's). This serves to provide a excellent model for the validity for Lehman's bus. plan. If you build it they WILL come.

Just imagine if E4L attracts 5% of this customer base. That's 3.325M. At $35 per member to the Co., the net revenue would be $116.375M.

With all of the media exposure, I don't think this is too much of a reach.

Add onto this anticipated 60% renewal rate from the existing members and, oh yes, the income from the infomercial biz. I don't see that revenues will be a problem for this Co.

The dilution issue, I must admit, still makes me nervous. But due to lockup agreements, etc, I feel this a long-run issue. Who knows? In the future this pup may be acquired by some major player, making the whole question rather moot.

In the short term, I see good things. No debt. Great alliances. Entry into the Japanese marketplace. And one mother of a squeeze down the road for the shorts.

One could get quite used to seeing green numbers for this.

Go ETV!!

PS All we need now is some upgrades!!
