Mp> I wondered same thing, On G&K I asked:
Re: QCOM I know we are speculating from the outside, but (assuming there's something to the rumors) can anyone think of a good reason Q would have to sell to Siemens as opposed to NOK or Ericy? Obviously Q's management would have thought this through; just curious.
To which Lucius Lamar responded
If it's to be sold, I would assume QCOM would try to sell it to a buyer that wants it the most. Eager buyers pay more . That would have to be a company that has manufacturing skills, deep pockets, and the ability to merchandise a consumer product. I suspect that there are a lot of companies out there that see the direction of the cell phone -pc market much like many on this thread, and an established cell phone brand is a good start. If this is the case a company like Siemans might make sense. For various reasons none of the present cell phone makers sound like good candidates, but who knows </i?
