What in particular? I guess this means things like the big idea of being the portal for thousands of other retailers & suppliers that won't want their own.

Amazon has the banner bar on the left for specials. Recently they had the 1¢ specials for drugstore.com and that was hugely successful apparently (a lot of items were sold out). So for really hot promotions I think amazon already is a portal, and I am negative on portals in general too.

Anybody know what these "high margin" opportunities supposedly are?

MSI,

No one has a clue including the analysts. I find at this point they have to have something positive to say but not specific. We have been seeing that a lot lately.
