>>Low Margin Biz...Lots of Competition. That's COMS<< Not exactly. May be true for their NIC's and modems. Their Layer2/3 switching and remote access products are high marign and very popular not to mention their new palm-top. Their brand name is very strong. Do your homework before you invest!

<<USRX was $147.99 -- the competition ranged from $85.95 to $94.99>> The USRX winmodems are being sold (if at all) with rebates of $50 to better compete (which begs the question: will USRX profits go the way of ZOOM et al.?) Anyhow, the USRX fax/modems which have just arrived in stores are more expensive than their competitors... COMS will be bouncing as Eric B will be on CNBC...I just bought in anticipation of this and will dump on the run up... Regards
