OK Ben, I guess I have to tell you how it works. <gggggg>

The TI chip is doing a single chip design just like Q, so the response is natural. Assuming that Q makes their product and TXN makes their product in the next year, then since they both use oversampling of RF at high frequency, it allows the possibility of a merged single chip plus a radio sampling chip to do essentially all frequencies and all formats.

I would look for a compbined AMPS/CDMA/WCDMA/GSM/GPRS/EDGE chip in the next 3 years.

One single RadioOne sampling chip, the core MSM, core WCDMA, and this TI DSP solution all incorporated into a single chip to make a true world phone chip.

At this point, the power of NOK adding their GSM experience along wiht TI and Q background would provide the most compelling market driver in all this possible.

Look for this type of relationship to come out of China.

..... also since they are oversampling and do not use the traditional RF down conversion techniques, they can also be multi-freqency type phones. If they assumed 2.2GHz was the highest frequecy that they could also do any one lower than that. This would provide the ability to do 450 MHz all the way up to 2200 MHz, thus covering all the known world Frequencies used for cellular.
