Probably, i think they will have a hard time branding "shopping.com" though similar case to advertising.com

Shopping.com hires new CFO [prnewswire.com]

I see what you mean, but I think they "may" just pull it off with that name (imo).

Maybe another acquisition or 2,

any potential candidates? apart from pricerunner for Europe?

I read in the Sunday Times a few weeks ago that Pricerunner were thinking of an IPO in late 2004.

I wouldn't have thought Shopping.com would have a problem branding themselves. Very generic, high-quality domains like Shopping.com are an instant winner with consumers as they are trusted before they have even seen the web site.
