You are correct only if you assume that Q isn't working hard on developing DS CDMA chipsets. I wouldn't assume that to be the case. I understand that no co. has the ability to make DS CDMA chipsets at present. Dr. J. said in recent CC that it's difficult to develop DS CDMA chipsets because there is not standard for them. Why go to the time and effort of developing an extremely complex chipset if no standard exists? The Q is not fighting the world. It's the other way around. No one wants to pay Q royalties if they can avoid it. CDMA2000 has chipsets available, is cheaper, and can be implemented faster than DS CDMA. The Q is trying to inject some rationality into the marketplace. Is it so bad that Q makes more cash in the process? As a Q shareholder, are you pertubed? Not me. I like what they're doing. Lotws of FUD going around, and most of it's based on the fact that no one wants to pay the Q. ERICY didn't, MOT didn't, NOK won't....for now. Be cool, it's all FUD.
