How about this for a COMS LOGO " Hold the world in the PALM of your hand" I would be careful with such motto.... Such line may lead some to think of Rosie Palm.... or worse, Hairy Palm. he, he, he.... The proverbial... "could not resist"

I seem to remember someone suggesting that COMS should get Bill Shatner to sell Palms, I can see it now Captian Kirk whipping out a palm pilot and saying beam me up, they would sell gobs of units. Grizz

<<How about this for a COMS LOGO....." Hold the world in the PALM of your hand">> Good one, Doug. Sometimes I wonder if 3Com knows how lucky it is to have COM as part of their name, with all the .com fever taking place. Now, they have to capitalize on it. I want to see fassst, loud, money, raaave, advantage color, access, sexy ....... in my head when I hear 3Com or Palm Pilot. In contrast to Andre's consumers, I still think of equipment when I hear "3Com". I want to see commercials like Nortels "Come Together" series (I know a lot of people think they suck but I like 'em) or ATT's "OneWorld" or MCI-Wcom's "Looking through the Portal" series; something that sears my brain and makes me feel pumped and forces my vision frontword instead of thinking of a bunch of wires and boxes.
