Yeah, I thought the price seemed a bit low as well.  Maybe Agere is hurting a bit????

It's too early to tell if this is good or bad.  We did know that the Wi-FI/Orinoco part of Agere was for sale or was going to be spun off from the other part of the company, so this wasn't a surprise (except the price of the deal).  Since we add software to the hardware I think the decision is neutral right now.  Proxim bought the AP business from Agere so I would expect they did that to manufacture the line.  If so it would be business as usual.

So, is this a good or bad thing?
