For those of you who missed it, Nortel is being sold off in pieces.
"Ericsson announced its interest in Nortel's wireless assets late, but it came home the winner, paying $1.13 billion for Nortel's LTE and legacy CDMA business." [Doug]
The Enterprise unit was sold to rival Avaya for $475M. [Reuters]
Radware had previously purchased Nortel Alteon business.
Having sat in a session with Nortel last week, it can't be fun to work there. Worse, it can't be fun to be a Channel Partner. Any residuals are likely gone. Worse is that you can't confidently sell Nortel solutions. How could you? It's bankrupt and being sold off. I wouldn't lend my reputation to a company in BK. Time to come up with a new business plan. We certainly live in interesting times.
