Symm is quietly having steady nice moves.

David Cote the new CEO is selling QoE business, which is basically time creator with codec correction software maintenance fees.

New business may be more than miniaturized atomic clocks.

The consumer business is shifting largely into internet cellphones which may use GPS satellites capacity. Symm had a head start on the miniaturized atomic clocks to be installed on these satellites to extend capacity for cellphones. But system is still small business. Consumer market is much bigger. That means Symm may have to support the market with text to speech, artificial intelligence technology. Or just build cellphones of the future to curve out a market.

Its a tall order, but Symm had transferred most manufacturing to China. And time creator servers can be a better market both in cableTV and telco systems. China has the voice controlled cellphone technology, and Symm may again have a head start on cellphone manufacturing selling into their own telco and cableTV customers' customers.
