Mahalo to you, Mary... I have no idea what it means, but assume that it's a good thing and I'm glad you enjoyed the post. :) Perception is everything with the internet stocks, or IMO Priceline.com would surely be trading at around 20. I think they have one of the very worst business models imaginable, yet who would argue that it was certainly one of the hottest IPOs of the year? I sure wish I hadn't flipped mine at 80-1/2. And on Wit's problems, yeah, it's tough when it takes hours to get through to someone on the phone. But I honestly believe that they're trying to improve the way they serve their customers. I've asked this question before, but it's worth asking again: When's the last time anyone here got an apology from E*Trade? Heck, they've totally ignored my complaints as though I didn't even exist. Their entire focus seems to me to be the acquisition of more customers that they cannot serve. At least Wit seems to be aware of the need to improve, and I believe they will improve quickly with the cash they raise in this IPO. I've had a Wit account for a couple of months and have gotten 4 IPOs. NETO is not exactly a ball of fire in my portfolio right now and neither is FCST, but I'm thrilled with my ETYS and BNBN to say the very least. I think WITC will be a winner.
