Based on present growth conditions hypster.com should be looking at nearly 1,300,000 users on the (low end) by September 2009. This is using 60,000 added per month x 12 = 720,000 and adding to rounded down current user base (540,000).
Also I might add that the numbers above are completely out the window if a larger player with deeper advertising pockets comes into play either through buyout or joint venture. IMO we could then expect current growth rate + moderate to superb additional growth.
In the above event in the order of 2,600,000 to 5,000,000 total users by next year since growth could be both organic and 'purchased.' Whoever buys hypster.com will need to know and want to take their investment to the next level.
As for PPS: high likelihood of run before end of this year to .0010 and perhaps even creeping near .0020 with consistent high volume days. These runs could generate out of a renewed wave of investor excitement as hypster.com approaches 800,000 (+) milestone by EO 2008.
There are more people watching this stock and new buyers have entered in. As the BUNM story gets out to investors a number will make entry at 600,000 and 700,000 milestones.
I expect a more-consistent and healthy trading pattern as we approach 2009. For 12 trading days in July BUNM had no trading activity at all. Since mid-July this the trend has largely reversed with no activity being the exception rather than the norm.
With actual news or rumor in regards to buyout the PPS could make run above .0050 and depending on who buyout entity BUNM could move into the low pennies on that type of news. If a Google or Microsoft 'name' purchases hypster.com the race to the pennies will be one to behold. .0002-.02 in a day or days could be in order.
Generally volume demand will be fueled by uncertainty as to how much buyout entity is going to pay per outstanding share and all other unknown details; will there be a buyback etc.?
The O/S could theoretically be majorly reduced depending on the financial strength of buyout entity. Self-funding versus selling stock to maintain operations could basically tighten up availability of shares greatly benefiting those who have grandfathered themselves as long holders.
All the above my estimation, deduction and opinion.
