Here is a letter posted to the paypal website............

      Dear PayPal Member,=20

      As you may have heard, PayPal recently agreed to be acquired by =
eBayT. Both companies share a common goal -- to enable PayPal members =
and eBay users to transact with greater ease, speed and safety -- and we =
look forward to working with eBay to achieve this goal.=20

      Still the Same PayPal=20

      When the acquisition is finalized later this year, the PayPal =
brand and website will remain distinct from eBay's, and PayPal will be =
run as an independent unit by the same team that's working here today. =
PayPal will also continue to offer a wide variety of non-auction =
services, including our Web Accept tools that let sellers accept =
payments directly from a website. And eBay has said that at this time =
they do not plan to raise fees for either PayPal or eBay.=20

      Exciting Improvements=20

      eBay's purchase of PayPal does mean that we'll be able to pursue =
some exciting improvements. Once the acquisition is completed, PayPal =
will be fully integrated into eBay's website, making it even easier for =
you to use PayPal to collect payments for your eBay auctions.=20

      And PayPal's commitment to rapidly developing new, innovative =
features isn't going to change. In the months to come you'll see many =
major new features from us, including:=20
        a.. Transactions in Multiple Currencies


        b.. Enhancements to our Shipping service


        c.. Additional tools for collecting auction payments=20
      We believe that our acquisition by eBay will enable us to focus on =
building the best payment tools for you.=20

      Thanks to our Members=20

      We're excited that PayPal is joining the eBay family, and we hope =
you are, too. If you have additional questions about eBay's upcoming =
acquisition of PayPal, be sure to click here to view a list of =
frequently asked questions.=20

      Thanks for making PayPal the world's #1 online payment service!=20

      Sincerely,=20

      The PayPal Team =20
