Once PALM is gone........What does COMS do on its own?

Wireless, VOIP, LAN telephony is currently about 10% of the non-PALM revenue mix. Analog modems, though maybe doing well, turn the street off as it's a shrinking but profitable business. What the street will want to see is growth in COMS core systems business at industry rates - along with leadership positions in some emerging businesses - wireless, IP telephony, etc. If these can't be achieved, COMS may end up as part of another company.

I think PALM after first day of trading will have a market cap close to COMS as a whole right now. That's why people are buying COMS.
