cleto,

I am not very familiar with DiscoveryCom products. However, preliminary review would indicate to me that they have a comparable DSL testing product to that of NHC (I think NHC's VCCS switch can support a larger number of lines.).

What's more important is that Nokia is going to buy out DiscoverCom (Aug 8th release). DiscoveryCom is no longer independent and will be used to support Nokia's DSL expansion.

discoverycom.com

Where does this leave NHC ?
- NHC is still independent
- NHC does not have a major shareholder
- NHC's VCCS switch is compatible with leading DSL vendors

This makes NHC a prime takeover target.

Cheers, Lalit Jain
