"Both Lucent and Nortel are on the minds of competitors such as Cisco. That company's CEO, John Chambers, said he would continue efforts to try and partner with one or both of the firms in an effort to expand the company's alliance portfolio to North America. "They understand voice networking and they have deep pockets financially," he added." I would LOVE to see a strong alliance formed between Cisco Systems (the World leader in data networking) and LU (the World leader in voice networking). I just thought it would be fitting since these two divisions (voice and data-networking) are predicted to eventually collide (in a few years) to form a single entity, and both these companies are industry leaders. Both companies have quite a bit to gain from a partnership, they can use each other to perfect combo multimedia networking hardware. Together, these two could control the entire telecommunications and networking industries. It would completely knock the socks off of Wall Street. news.com Just a thought, Serry Habash
