Stephen: Thx. ERIC's statement was a close echo in resonance with my earlier posts about the PALM. There was a difference and that lies in
the Marketing strategy.

You have these Networking/Electronic Sales Techs trying to sell a Consumer product. They will never succeed. Engineers only make great Products, it is the Sales Force that counts thereafter. 3COM needs new Blood and a Marketing strategy cloned off the great Gurus NIKE,COKE and Gillette.

First leap frog technology at brakeneck speed with all the features I described. Then win the young minds on a global scale and they in turn will unrelentingly make their parents feel nude w/o a Palm. Use the kids and teen agers to sell the Concept up the ladder. The parents and Corporations have no choice thereafter.

Sounds familiar I am sure.

Thanks for the post. I liked this sentence:

"The chief executive, however, refused to comment on the
acquisition rumors concerning 3Com."

No denial, again.
