Gary....COMS owns part of JNPR. JNPR has developed a new switch(M-40?)This switch supposedly runs circles around CSCOs stuff. How does this factor into the equation???

I did mean revenues, nevertheless, I was trying to manifest the difference between a company that has proven revenues, market scope, brand recognition and much better potential in the the next generation of technologies; in Broadband & Wireless. Everyday I hear some hyperbole from some new clown that COMS is history and the Palm VII is a flop. Do your due diligence and you will see that it is a killer devise and there is nothing present that can emulate the Palm VII. Yes, if you compare it with the future that does not exist, Palm VII is history. But that is true for almost everything. Did you forget COMS has made good use of its capital. It has recently made a windfall in Juniper ($8Billion Market Cap.) and another IPO I have forgotten. Did you forget that they are the only company that has a PDA with a remote access Modem. What makes you think that COMS is going up against SUNW, I think with regard to this you are mistaken. I was apprised that they had made solid alliances with some of the best companies around the world. To mention a few; IBM,SUNW,ORCL,NTT,Seimens and many others. These companies combined would eat MSFT alive. MSFT has done everything it can to emulate the PalmOS, but I am a firm believer they are doing all this in vain. If COMS is able to keep its alliances with IBM, SUNW, Siemens,ORCL and NTT DeCoMo they will become the de facto OS for most PDA's. The seeds that Eric (aka on this site as many things) has laid will manifest themselves not too far into the future. I am a firm believer in almost everything COMS is doing and I think COMS can survive without merging with another company. I have invested all my liquid asset into COMS because at these prices there just is nothing with more value than COMS. Currently I have two homes in Escrow so that I can take advantage of these garage sale prices. I hope the negative sentiment persists until the end of August, when the sales are to be consummated, so that I will be able to buy more COMS shares below $25. I never thought COMS would ever again go below $25 but I am fortunate to be able to get another chance and you can rest assured I will put all my eggs in one basket. The cliche, "don't put all your eggs in one basket" is for those that are ignorant of what they are doing. I know what I am doing, laughing at all you fools that think COMS is history.
