According to the Washington Post [blogs.washingtonpost.com].

Although this is what Symantec had stated last month [symantec.com]:

Symantec will continue to sell the current Sygate solutions under the Sygate brand. In the next six months, the company expects to rebrand the next version of the products and include additional functionality. Thereafter, Symantec plans to integrate the Sygate technology into the company's existing enterprise security products.

Sorry to hear that. The only hope is that Symantec folds the product over one of their existing ones like they did when they bought PowerQuest. They completely replaced their inferior Ghost product with a re-branded DriveImage.
