You write: "No one has convinced me that Pirelli -- a two bit European player is worth the 2 billion. More importantly, the integration issue will potentially detract Cisco from doing what it really needs to do to compete in the PTT/Carrier market."

Silly boy,

The market liked CSCO's move and the stock appreciation on today's move was greater than 20Billion in Market cap so paying 2Billion for the "bit European player" was well received. Or do you know more than the market?

By the way, with your rather negative view of Italy, why do you choose to do business there? Or why did the company you work for send you, the telecom guy to a telecom backwater/do 90% of your business there (based on my impression of your post concerning Italy)?
