I wouldn't touch VNE long or short. As I'm not the one pumping it up, I have no idea when the "pumpers" will become "dumpers".

eMerge Press Release - 10 ISP's Register in First Month Good morning to you all. Valu-net has issued a big press release updating the progress of the eMerge alliance, which includes partner Citibank. Specifically, the alliance has reported establishing relationships with 10 Internet Service Providers (ISP'S), representing approximately 46,000 potential merchant clients. We are especially encouraged by the fact that five (5) of the ISP's are national brands and include: Interlog, Canada Internet Direct, Internet Direct, Global Serve and Interhop. The eMerge Alliance enables corporate clients affordable entry into the E-business market through a complete, end-to-end online business solution. Founding partners of the eMerge Alliance include: Citibank Canada; Valu-net: INEX Corporation; and Lasso Communications. For your convenience, we have provided the following direct link to the press release, which includes a complete listing of participating ISP's and more complete detail: biz.yahoo.com This press release also follows up national exposure of the program in yesterday's Globe & Mail, as well as, several publications since the alliances official launch in early February. CONCLUSION After a national unveiling of the program in early February, many industry analysts and observers have been waiting for early indications of this program's success. Given this morning's press release, it is apparent that Valu-net, Citibank and the remaining partners are successfully rolling out the program and are on their way to achieving their conservative target of 5,000-7,000 merchant customers by the end of 1999. The eMerge Alliance anticipates average expenditure of $5,000 per customer, which translates into revenues of $25,000,000-35,000,000. As such, we continue to remain extremely confident in the future of Valu-net (VNE.ASE), which the Globe & Mail called "one of Canada's most promising E-Commerce companies".
