It will be a thin frame across the top of all pages keeping the
'branding' element(s) of the site visible. This is one option I'm
building in prototype -- am also building the same page "plain" and
there will be a "no frames" version if the client choses the
framed-look.
See, I'm willing to "give" on the frame in order to "toe the line" on a
few other points.

As an end user, I /love/ Amazon.Com's shopping cart. The only thing that
I don't like is that if you choose the "resume shopping" button it
doesn't take you back to the section you were in - it takes you back to
the main page.
What do I like? It is easy to use; I can have more than one CC on file;
I see how much it will cost before I actually say "yes I want this" -
the confirmations are great (your order received, your order sent).
