Hello DownSouth, I believe that you cut and paste my text out of context and perhaps it should have read "unfortunate that I was American or DW's comment about typing slowly would have been better" (as I said to him touche, and if he doesn't mind I would like to use that one in the future). I am a proud American (who also lived in the UK for a while and travels to Europe quite a bit) and my fear as a QCOM shareholder is that if QCOM was to strike a deal with a European based cellphone manufacturer there would be a negative reaction in the markets based on the remarks in this forum. The question you raised about when will the cost/performance benefits of CDMA push European countries to adopt CDMA I believe that can be answered by the fact that all of Europe HAS or WILL adopt WCDMA (QCOM). A collegue of mine points out that QCOM may be alot further ahead in WCDMA then has been let on, with a few neat technical twists (all patented of course). Perhaps however I do not know enough about the royalty structure. Now here is a question to you: What is the difference between the Royalties that QCOM receives for CDMA2000 and WCDMA? ed.
