***Will HDR be in demand?*** Nortel says, 'Yawn'.
Although it's not HDR... <Pete Skarzynski, Samsung's vice president of wireless sales and marketing, isn't losing any sleep. He credits the close working relationship between Samsung and Sprint PCS - evidenced by successive contracts valued at $600 million and $500 million - with preparing the manufacturer for larger-than-normal production runs of the SCH-3500. "Typically, there's a slow start when a new product and a new service are launched," he says. "But this just skyrocketed to the top of the sales chart. It has us scrambling.">
Where the rubber meets the road and the surf meets the sand, it's all action! Prepare for an HDR parts shortage and a LOT of cats on the screen, rats down the drain and cars zooming up the on-ramp.

PS: Re, the next post, the parts for HDR are, I suppose, your standard electronic gizzards, whoever makes those. Q! will make the best part, the ideas which go into the ASIC. The plastic housing, screens, batteries, resistor things, solder and all that are the same old things. China will certainly have production facilities installed for assembly!
Don't forget Dow 16,000 Feb 2002. I bet some people are starting to think that's not nuts now [nnn btw imho]. |
