....but in your opinion, when is the best time to sell COMS? I'm still trying to work that out, but at the moment I plan to hold for a month or so to see how COMS is tracking PALM, and then probably sell COMS and buy some PALM. That way I figure I'll avoid the long and tedious wait and uncertainty, the danger of a huge drop in COMS after the distribution, and even give the chance to come back in and buy some cheap when (I'm pretty sure its a when) the big sell off occurs. What do other think? Is this a reasonable strategy? Possibly there will be tax implications doing it this way? Joe
