PMCS talking this morning at 8:00 PT (11;00 ET) at Robbie Stevens conference. I suspect the presentation will be bullish, and the stock is moving up in anticipation of that. Steve

*OT* >>I was wondering if anybody knew who designs chips for mobile computing (i.e. elec. appliances). I know the major player is Texas Ins., but does anybody know of any smaller size companies doing the same? >You may want to look into Wind River Systems (WIND). They produce the embedded Operating System and development tools for non-PC computing devices. fellow. for IC (read: chip) makers in this space, i would put Conexant and Broadcom on your list for starters. in fact, if your jones is strictly for e-appliances, Broadcom wants to be the convergence player here, hooking your fridge to your boob-tube combo computer to your own cute little personal remote-control device ... whatever that will do. (make me extra ice while i'm at work?) at least that's what i think Henry T. Nicholas III was babbling about on Moneyline last night in his futile attempt to impress Willow Ba(b)y. (sorry i can't be more clear on the convo, but i too was reduced to an unintelligible puddle by her fabulously chiseled jaw structure. CNBC? please. you know Willow's got a way better 'do than that helmet Sue Herera calls her hair.) as i should pro'ly incorporate a modicum of usefulness in this post; here's an article in Forbes, albeit from last year, that may interest you: forbes.com for the record, i'm not name-dropping these two as purchase recommendations, merely cited them as a starting point for your due dilly. you know, the standard denouement applies: you can choose your friends, you can choose your stocks, but you can't choose your friends' stocks. always do your own homework, -chris.
