John, So it is not the taxes which is keeping it down. Why is it not fairly valued? Is it concerns about semi side's loss of synergy with Divi such as in settops?

Thanks John. Hope the same applies where the spin (or sale) is part of a larger tax-free exchange. HLIT structured this deal to be tax free from their side, thus the purchase of the entire company (what's left) for a stock exchange. If we can obtain new stock in C-semi, tax free at issuance, excellent, then by all means spin it don't sell it - let us determine when to pay the taxes! Especially a "new company" run by the new CEO, whom I think will be better received by Wall Street. Again, I think I'll check w/my broker. Good Luck. p.s. Boo!

Did I miss something, according to Cube's 10K from 12/98 Sony uses Ziva in its DVD players sec.gov The adoption of ZiVA decoders continued to grow in 1998, with consumer electronics OEMs such as Sony, LG Electronics, Tatung, Hitachi and Acer all publicly announcing products using the ZiVA decoder.
