We've worried alot around here about Q handsets competing directly with Q ASIC customers' products. Now MOT proposes to do the same thing, despite all the rumours swirling around about problems THEY are having with their own chipsets. You have to wonder why a BIG handset manufacturer like MOT would want to go into competition with itself instead of simply trying to take the market on it's own, especially if it had it's act together and it's chips are really going to be competitive. Although I'm not usually one for conspiracy theories, perhaps this is really a salvo in the court case, throw some cold water on Q stock price, stir things up, put the pressure on.. And perhaps, just perhaps, the selling happened of it's own accord, the market , interest rates, all that, and had very little to do with MOT's statements.
