Positive outlook for BenQ
Despite the acquisition of Siemens, that can't be said to have been a very profitable phone business, it still looks good for BenQ for 2006.
While analysts say BenQ will have a tough time turning around the unit, the Siemens deal, which will be closed later this year, catapults the relatively obscure Taiwan firm into the world's top 10 handset makers.
BenQ sees 2006 revenue at US$10 billion - Yahoo! News: "Chief marketing officer Jerry Wang told Reuters BenQ would gain Siemens's handset revenue stream, while sales of liquid crystal display (LCD) monitors would also grow."
