1. | We note your response to prior comment two of our letter dated July 21, 2008 indicating that you have complied with prior comments 6-8 of our letter dated March 26, 2008; however, we are unable to locate such revisions on the Prospectus Cover Page. Please revise. |

Summary Financial Data, page 2
2. | We note your response to prior comment three from our letter dated July 21, 2008; however, we are unable to locate disclosure in either the business description or in management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations that addresses the potential inability of the company to finance purchases through a third party service provider. In fact, we note disclosure that that the company has recently entered into an agreement with a new service provider and that the revenue provided by the third party service provider is not a significant portion of the company’s revenues. Instead, the third party service provider merely increases the chance of making a sale because the sale can be financed. Please explain in detail under what circumstances the company would no longer be able to provide third party financing and the impact that would have on the company. |
