Cisco (CSCO)
Cisco may drop its 17.2 billion-krone ($3.04 billion) offer for Tandberg ASA as shareholders owning 24 percent of the Norwegian company press for a higher offer, said a person familiar with the transaction.
If Cisco is unable to get investors with 90% of Tandberg to approve its 153.50 kroner-a-share offer, it would strongly consider walking away, said the person who declined to be identified. Investors have until November 9 to accept the offer.

Costco (COST)
The Houston maker of the popular Chi filed a lawsuit this week against Costco Wholesale Corp., alleging it improperly sells the hairstyling tools, including counterfeit ones.
In the suit, filed in state district court, Farouk Systems alleges that the Issaquah, Wash., wholesale club is selling the flat irons for as little as $59.99, whereas they cost at least $100 in salons. In its suit, Farouk's lawyers said sometimes Chi products find their way to stores through a “diverted” market, or through improper distribution channels.
