What can I say... I like my speakerphone... and their marketshare, growth potential, and the rate of their business cycle.

As VOIP enters the telephony market mainstream Polycom is in a good position to take advantage of the market for telephone handsets and speaker phones to replace those from proprietary vendors such as nortel

With the ever-growing interest in online video capabilities and video-conferencing in companies, Polycom shows no debt with increasing investments. Its dedication towards innovation will make it a leader in its field as technology continues to expand.

I use VOIP for my business and while researching companies I stumbled across these folks.
I know nothing else about them. Just starting my research.
I like what they do...all else is a gut feel

I've shorted this before, and this looks like it's surpassing a short-term technical barrier, without much pause in terms of profit taking. So, rather than short now, I'm stepping back. Looking at the big picture (5 year trailing 41% annual growth rate), I'll give it a long term thumbs up.

Soaring prices for jet fuel are leading to higher airfares. That, plus a shrinking bottom line for many US companies will lead to more videoconferencing.

Polycom is the leader in videoconferencing. As energy costs continue to rise and airtravel gets more expensive (and dangerous and cumbersome as well) the long-term demand for meeting via videoconferencing will steadily grow.

With the swine flu epedimic just getting started and here to stay, as well as El Nino coming up companies will travel less to avoid illness and videoconferencing will skyrocket. I see this stock at $38 within the year.

They just reported decent earnings but the stock was hammered and I think it presents a good buying opportunity for the RB. Cisco just bought their main competitor so they should gain short term and long term gains for those who hate Cisco. Could also be bought out by Avaya or HP as they beef up to compete with Cisco.

Video conferencing is big business away from the USA. Watch this company grow in the short term, especially outside the US. Write it down and hang it on your bulletin board. Very well managed, and in an area of little (comparable) competition, which equates to dollars as we all know.

The growth rate looks good, and the entry price for this pick makes it particularly attractive. This will eventually win!
