Dear gdichaz--I believe you will soon see INTEL processors integrated

into QCOM ASICS or perhaps as an additional combo DSP CPU chip. As you probably know, Intel and IMB are two main foundrys for QCOM ASICS. Also, I seem to recall that, in a settlement with Digital, Intel acquired rights to the highly respected ARM processor. If this is true, then Intel could provide QCOM with an ARM CPU somehow integrated w/ their ASIC.

With a choice of CPU's, presumably Q could also run Psion/Symbian's EPOC efficiently if they had customers who demanded it. And, believe me, the Psion users (mainly Europeans) are total fanatics about useing the huge mass of existing PSION software!!

Regards
