Andreas, I am looking at this myself and 
collected the following information:
 

Here's what I was sent.

Gene, I'm a P&F guy from way back. I have 
subscribed to Investors Intelligence since '87, and I check Dorsey's CNBC site 
daily. I don't sub to his full service though a friend does. We have an 
arrangement whereby we send each other parts of services so I  hear from 
Dorsey in one way or another almost daily. What is your 
interest?****************************
That is a very good service, very experienced 
and knowledgeable. dorsey spoke at the washington conference,  A money 
mangager who uses his service is Kieran loughman, in Plymouth Mass,   
who is a member (inactive) of the Boston User Group, and who spoke at the 
Clearwater school.On P&F.1.  Read Dorsey's book,  
a good read even if you do not do the work.2.  understand that the 
basis for dorsey is investor's intelligence, chartcraft of New York.3.  
FastGraph by the Hucks, Edgeware, has very nice PF graphs.  reads FT data 
directly, Kieran saw this product, and liked it.  It changes box size 
within the graph at the proper price points without  having to be told what 
to do. (at least I think it does,  haven't used it in a long 
time.)I am not expert with pF but familiar with it and understand 
it.  It is not perfect.  A lot of people hate it, just not techy 
enough.  But it does work.  and does give some very good 
signals.*************************************  
Gene, I first subscribed to Chartcraft about five years ago to 
get the bullish% information on NYSE and sectors. About the 
same time I read Tom Dorsey's book, he explained the bullish <FONT 
size=2>% in his book and how he has used it for market timing. He say's it has 
not failed him in 15 years, although he does not go 
completely out of the market at bad times.
 
Dorsey has taken Chartcraft info into the computer world. For 
years Dorsey served only the brokerage/institution markets 
with his service at $500 + per month. He then introduced a <FONT 
size=2>reduced service for retail(about 2yrs ago). The mutual fund point & 
figure info is $25.00 per month which I don't use. This does 
not include Bullish%'s, if you want those then you pay 
another $10/mo, or total of $35/mo., which is what I pay since I want the 
Bullish%'s. The stocks P&F are priced separately and I 
don't remember that price. This is paid <FONT 
size=2>quarterly.
 
I use the information for market timing of NYSE & OTC, and 
to follow the turns in the Sectors, it works very well 
for me and is worth the $35/mo that I pay for it. Sometimes <FONT 
size=2>his site is slow and the updates were late sometimes. But they are 
continually improving the service and these irritations seem 
to be going away. I might add that he has a large service 
business with the brokerage part, so he will be there and has sufficient capital 
to keep up with the future. He has a lot more that I do not 
use that might be of interest to you.
 
I suggest you read his book(someone has mine so don't have the 
title) .
