Thanks for the replies, I agree with all of you on its long term prospects. Just a little shell shocked after the past few weeks. I had bought RIMM in January at $70Cdn watched it go to 260Cdn and finally bailed at 110Cdn. Fortunately I got out in time. I had felt pretty good about RIMM as well and still do. They have a great product, maybe not the same barrier's and tech edge that PMCS has.
I still think this market has a couple of ups and downs in it. Might be a good time to jump in and out several times, but then you risk watching the stock run away. I will be patient for a bit. A few choice words by Greenspan may provide opportunities to enter PMCS.
TraderDave- the insanity I was referring to, is watching stocks like PMCS go from $111 to 158 in a day or JDU having at 50% spread in a day. Efficient market theory? Somehow I doubt the fundamentals for the company changed that much in several hours.
Best of luck to all.

Speaking of Broadcom...their outlook continues to improve across various markets outside the traditional Fast Ethernet/video-only STB markets that have dominated their top line since inception. 100% share of 10Mbps home networking, 100% share of GbE-over-copper, 60+% share of total Ethernet ports shipped, serious share (80%?) of DOCSIS-compliant cable modems...the list goes on.

While in a separate networking segment from PMC, Broadcom's continual integration of new IP that no other competitor has is comparable to PMC's solutions emphasis in the core.

Disclosure-Broadcom is my top holding, PMC is my fourth largest.
