Another contradiction was their failing to provide a long awaited plan(right after promising one “next week” a while ago). Instead a plan will be made up as they go along they said, on the fly, shooting from the hip, directionless.

Also, how can they assess injecting funds into R&D with evidently weak financial controls given their recent dramatic revisions (worse by the week, doubling intial estimates).

Perhaps the change of heart to maintain a high budget R&D it is all part and parcell of the ongoing theatrics to look like they are doing something /anything, in desperation, directionless as they sell all assets to the point of selling business while maintaining a huge inefficient non-profit hobby white elephant R&D. How long can they keep printing Nortel paper to pay for all of this is beyond me. Closing loopholes in bond applications requiring pensions be listed now doesn’t help either.

Now what? WiMax /IPTV / assimilting Voice into others server software in areas others control, dominate, or that will accompany no substantial returns as they learn lessons directionless?
