<<< Spencer the Katt, says that COMBOT will sell off PalmPilot post merger due to lack of strategic fit. Who knows? . What would it fetch in the maket place? I thought I had read a projection of sales of 1 million units for the next 12 months, with addons, modems etc, probably would represent sales to USRX in the range of $240-$300 million annually. At 3X sales perhaps a sales price in the range of $750 million to $1 billion or so. Maybe they could spin it off to the shareholders as a separate company. >>> Dale, Why spin off a perfectly good product? Like the Pilot ever strategically fitted into the USR product line? It didn't really, but it still brought in some revenues. Only time I would like them to spin it off is when they have maximized its full potential, where it can no longer be upgraded. Or when Windows CE goes full blown, and blows away the Palm Pilot.
