"VLSI shareholders filed suit in a Delaware court today asking company directors to consider the original Philips bid and look for higher offers. VLSI investor Michael Bernstein said the shares are worth more than $17 apiece."

This is real interesting, saw it posted earlier on Yahoo, which has been slow all day. SI is working great as usual. Jim

''The acquisition would be good for Philips -- the price therefore is not really relevant,'' said Oscar Poos, an analyst at Bank Insinger de Beaufort.

Then why not pay $ 30 if price is not relevant?

It is all about price. Philips thought they could "bear hug" VLSI into a cheap $ 17 offer. It is not working. I hope they lose and pay twice that!
