So Much For Procket

So Much For Procket 06/11/2004 03:43 AM
At the bottom of the down years in technology, there were still a few companies that managed to raise lots of money at insane valuations and have dot-com insanity-style stories. One of the biggest was Procket. When news first came out about the company they were still in "stealth" mode (oh so very dot com), but had a $1.55 billion valuation. As stealth as they claimed to be, everyone knew they were working on the next generation of "super router" to be the next Cisco or Juniper. The company has gone on something of a soap opera ride since then, with more executive shakeups that you should bother counting. Om Malik started the story buzzing today after hearing that s omeone was looking to buy up Procket, and it didn't take long for the rumors to get picked up elsewhere: Cisco has bought some of their assets for $80 million. From $1.55 billion to $80 million in about two years. That takes talent.

Procket Deal Official, One Day After
Chambers Explained Why They Didn't Need
It 06/17/2004 11:50 AM
A week ago we wrote about the rumored deal that Cisco had bought massively overhyped router startup Procket for $80 million. All week long, no announcement came, and rumors started flying that there was no deal, or that others were trying to top the deal. Yesterday, there was even more speculation that there was no deal when Cisco CEO John Chambers claimed they didn't need any additional routing products or technology, though he snuck in one important caveat: saying the opportunity to acquire talented engineers might make an acquisition worthwhile. Basically, this was his way of spinning the Procket acquisition in a way that didn't make it looks like Cisco's own new router technology was a complete dud. Today, they made it official. Cisco has acquired the company that raised approximately $300 million and was valued at $1.55 billion for a whopping $89 million... for the engineers, of course. Update: Procket founder Tony Li gives his thoughts in an interview where he says the price is a steal, but buying Procket is definitely going to upset Cisco engineers, who will feel it's a sign that they didn't do a very good job on the CRS-1 router (though, he also thinks Cisco "missed the market" with the CRS-1).

Pervasive networks—a ubiquitous “fabric” of computing, information, entertainment, and telemetry capability tied together by high-speed wired and wireless networks—are emerging from a flurry of new communication technologies now being used in home and office networks. Though communications carriers do not offer this type of continuous communication as a service today, the piece parts are already in place. [PRWEB Dec 20, 2004]
