Tero. You really don't get it do you?
On question of Europe incurring US ire by thumbing nose at WTO principles.
1) Will the rest of Europe and Britain incur US ire to support Finland and Sweden. Is it to the benefit of the rest
of Europe that Finland and Sweden, two economically obscure European countries, retain their stranglehold on
world wireless. Is it to the benefit of Japan that this "monopoly" continue.
2) Would opening Europe to MC CDMA help better spread the wireless market to France, Germany and
Britain? Why should the rest of their Europeans die for their nordick Finnish and Swedish brothers. Why not have a
fresh start where all countries have a chance to see their favorite wireless mfg companies take a share in the
market. To accomplish this, simply use QCOM ASICS and reference designs. If the Chinese can do it, then
surely the French and Germans can do it.
3) These are not banana's and beefs. NOK and ERICY sell a lot of equipment into N America. Those sales
should be put at risk by their thinly veiled monopoly to shut MOT, Nortel and Lucent out of Europe and by
extension, operating out of that monopoly, limit their access to the rest of the world
