I personally feel it will be Siemens. They need to stay competitive and could use the Networking of 3COM. They are already a pretty big partner. In the 3COM booth at Interop it was pretty noticeable Siemens was more then just a partner. JMHO of course. It sure will be interesting. I spoke to a close Lucent friend of mine and discussed the possibilities of Lucent being the suitor. At first we didn't think it would be a good fit, however could you imagine the advantages of Lucent using the Palm in the Wireless world?

I forgot to mention, Lucent needs to fill a gap in it's routing space. COMS currently has some routing code. But I still feel it will be Siemens because of the European's wanting to stay in the loop. Look at the French Alcatel who just picked up XYLAN. Also GEC who picked up Fore. There is major consolidation going on and the Europeans want to be around to take advantage of this Billion dollar industry.
They all had booths in Networld Interop.
