"Alcatel confiirmed plays to acquire Xylan in a $2 billion transaction and said it expects to buy another Internet-hardware company by next week. SOURCE - Front Page today's Wall Street Journal" Any quesses who will be bought next week? Page B6 further says - "It expects to spend a few hundred million dollars to acquire a company specializing in linking mobile computers to local area and other networks. The name of the target company couldn't be learned; most makers of such "remote access" technology are closely held, analysts said." Any thoughts? Thanks, MARUCAT
