Mike,

That would be interesting. ERICY is a company that wants to be in data but can't cut it (except for the announced deal to resell Juniper's M40). They are a company so steeped in bureaucracy, I am not sure that I would even want to get involved if I am CSCO. Aside from China, Ericy is a slow moving, slow growth company. There would have to be massive divestitures, layoffs, and a transfer of control from Stockholm.

Regards,

Brian

I don't think that will ever happen. Proximity: no where near. Technology: plenty of cheaper cos. to buy (like Qualcomm). Culture: exact opposite. Ericcson fails every test for a Cisco acquisition.
