Actually Pat I think the statement was very bold and not totally unfounded. Consider the following:

1- CSCO, LU and NT, by far the three largest communications equipment providers, are preaching Gigabit and even terabit routers as replacements in Service Provider's cores. A paradigm shift in the making that COULD hurt Newbridge very dearly.

2- NN's lowsy record of making their numbers the last 3 quarters.

3- NN's lack of a layer 3 story after the UB fiasco.

4- NN's relatively small size, compared to the afore-mentioned networking giants.

IMHO, as a Canadian investment firm, they were quite gutsy to make the statements they made and dare I say, not that far off the mark. (At the risk of being flamed by this thread ...)

Let tomorrow's numbers tell the story,

Good luck to all,

Cheers,

Peppe
