Wow, Earnings date...

COM$ is really getting it together on a lot of fronts. Their old reporting habits were not good. This is great news and should lead to more consistent information and better reputation on the Street.

Another good point announced a while back was that they will also breakout Palm results separately in the next earnings release. This is also overdue.

This are both very good signs. Their previous reasons for not doing these things were highly suspect..

Do you ever remember a date being given out this early?

I guess they finally realized that people don't like the uncertainty of their old style announcing.

Actually I guessed about the date and linked to 3Com's investor relations web site hoping they would list it. I think they finally did last week sometime. (I posted the earnings release date early last month)

Lucky guess!
