Stock Buffs: Lucent and Nextel....

Cisco is always a good one - although there is a new router coming out that claims to make them obsolete, but they all say that.
this one looks at what is being sent and directs it accordingly, even allowing a company on the hardware level to disallow mp3s and such to be downloaded and thereby wasting bandwidth.
good for companies, sucks for the employees
 
Well I work for Agere which just spun off from Lucent............the stock is so damn cheap why not buy it?? Besides they may be getting bought out........
 
Bad Router! Bad Router! Bad Router! Bad Router!

I agree on lucent though....
 
wodin - I believe that your avatar is from the hitchhiker's guid to the galaxy (Was it 42 or 43 that was the answer?).
that guy just died recently of ... I think it was cancer.
 
I hate to tell you guys, but tech stocks are dead. Communications was hot but I think they're simmering off a bit. Look to the energy sector in the next couple years. I'm telling ya, it's gonna be fucking huge!
 
I would hold off on Lucent.

They have made the kind of mistakes that signal a company's death.

Little know fact: they were selling SONET hardware (telecom shit) for $10,000 per unit when they were worth roughly $100. Markups are expected but there is a limit to what is acceptable.

It hasn;t helped them regain credibility. They have actualy had to come out and deny bankruptcy warnings.

Nextel I like because wireless is only beginning....they are a bet for an acquisition down the line.

Even if Cisco stopped making routers, there is so much Cisco hardware out there that they'd be here forever.

Also, if a router works well, you don;t replace it because something alittle better comes out....it isn't economically justifiable for most businesses.

Happy -

Cisco's hardware can screeen applications and filter them accordingly. That's no breakthrough. Are you talking about something from Juniper or Ciena?
