Gee Chaz, How come it's so quiet? It's like the lull before the gunfire at El Alamein when Rommel was defeated. Which, so I heard, got quite noisy and continuous.

Everyone holding their breath or what?

There aren't 200 posts a day in the Q! SI streams now.

The cdma2000 vs W-CDMA moves in Japan should be interesting. Meanwhile, Q! quarterly results on Tuesday. I don't see that it's dumb.

Irwin Jacobs has for 40 years [give or take a few] started businesses, spun them off, created new ideas, spun them off, enjoyed a long and successfully creative time. Spinning off and starting heaps of things.

There have been no real failures. Even the infrastructure business was only a moderate failure and only because competition did what it was supposed to do.

Now, he's going to introduce cdma2000 to Japan by way of a new service provider if necessary.

Seems fair enough to me. There must be a lot of companies interested in joining in there. There is not much CDMA at present and a bit of competition wouldn't go amiss. Maybe Leap Wireless International might like to have a go. Or perhaps NextWave Telecom. Or Telecom New Zealand? They would like to take on a bit more than they have here. NTT should be a pushover.

Actually, a lot of little guys didn't decide to sell; it was decided for them.
