This is such a shame. There are so many times when I wonder what the virtuoso rate (or most recent amenity) is for a particular property but I don't want to contact DavidO because I'm only half serious about the trip and don't want to waste his, or anyone else's time.

I would think having a complete online Virtuoso resource would be helpful in saving the agents a lot of time. Of course, the actual booking should still be required through the agent.... Maybe something like this could be password protected for previous Virtuoso customers.
