This sounds like an excellent growth sector. However, I am not sure what busines(s) it is composed of.

From the article:
"...Compaq Telecommunications' three principal subdivisions include telecommunications solutions, integrations services and platforms..."

Then in another part of the article it states:

"...Compaq's announcement,..., is a response to a demand for Internet-related services, the company said..."

Can we assume that this is a brand new market and may include e-commerce & e-business applications and services (business to business), IP telephones, and PDA and other specilized internet devises (ie. set-top-boxes)?

If so, this is a huge "potential" growth market.
