HLIT possibility from Yahoo thread....."Alcatel will buy HLIT for U.S. presence by: e_maven 6/21/00 10:08 am Msg: 22553 of 22558 You be the judge: Alcatel ($61.5B) /Thomson's Media ($15.5B) eyes US market for MPEG network products, multimedia head-ends and HFC solutions for cable TV networks. "After voice and data, I am convinced that video will follow the Internet way" declared Serge Tchuruk. "With the creation of this new company, Alcatel and THOMSON multimedia are positioning themselves as a strong player in this nascent market. While the activities will be centered initially in Europe, I have no doubt that the US market can be within reach by a combination of organic and external growth as Alcatel has done in other domains." Hmmm....US market within reach by external growth? $77 billion vs. $2.3 billion with best suite of products... I wonder who Alcatel/Thompsons will buy to gain access to the U.S. market????? alcatel.com "
