1) even .02c increase is 11.11% sequential increase in
earnings. ( .02/.18 = .111111).

2) I'd feel pretty confident that their gross margin
will improve
(it did so last quarter; and was
well recognized by analysts). I agree with Matt,
this is what analysts will be focusing on the most...and
future visibility.

>>On a valuation basis it could go lower ie if it continues to miss
quarters.<<

What do you think the chances are of this? btw...preannouncement month is already past us, so you
might want to work that into your consideration.

>>Strategically this is not a 3com epoch, however: not going
to be one of the "I Love you" stocks anytime soon.<<

"this" as in this quarter? Nobody would disagree with you
there. But 1999, and COMS lifts to a new level, if it executes.
