Excerpt from a Dow Jones article on U.S. Surgical:

Meanwhile Boston Scientific, another oft-cited potential
acquirer [of U.S. Surgical], is preoccupied with its own challenges.
Sources say the company is a finalist in the bidding for
Pfizer Inc.'s (PFE) Schneider Worldwide
medical-device unit. But the company's bid appears to
be short of Pfizer's target price of $2 billion to $2.2
billion, the sources said. In addition, speculation
continues about whether Boston Scientific will buy out
its Israel-based coronary-stent partner, Medinol Ltd.
