James,

I am not too sure what you mean by speculation on QCOM and WIND. Are you talking about a merger or working together?

I don't see Q buying WIND. It would suck if it does happen. WIND is riding the embedded wave, the CDMA wave is tiny in comparison. I would not be shocked to see Q is using VxWorks, not on their MSM3000, but on their future chip. I don't think the MSM3100 has 2 processing cores. But Q is working on a new chip with 2 cores, one running PDA functions such as CE or Palm OS, the other does hardcore controlling and communication protocol. I think VxWorks should be well suited for this. (Just a guess.)

P.S. UCLA has a quite nice campus. I should have visited when I was in high school many years ago!
