>>>Hm, must be a no brainer, this whole EBPP thing. Right?

Yea...MicroSoft, First Data & CitiBank...all Multi-Billion dollar corporations are still pissing with this thing after 2 years.

Somebody might just take the short cut an buy us out for about 10 Billion or 2 x market....or we'll surely burry them along with the rest. I can only hope.

Yes. Before BoA starts bragging about its EBPP, they should be in production. In order to really brag they better have more billers signed up, other than their own Credit Card. Most likely we will not hear anything from BoA for 6 months, a lifetime, IMHO.

As far as TP going to Production this Quarter, assuming they do, I think there will be about 10 billers (no national billers), and maybe one bank, but not the following banks..

Bank One - Only will work through Integrion.
Wells Fargo - Need to complete another Pilot first.
KeyBank - 3rd Quarter.

Really only leaves Mellon and First Union as possible launch sites. There is also MSN, but if consumers can only receive bills (no pay anyone) from a handfull of billers, I doubt there will be much interest.
