Are you confused, Peter? How is this NOT relevant to Nokia? Qualcomm has no TDMA or GSM IPRs, by the way. Zip, zilch, nada........although Gilder is claiming that Jacobs and company invented TDMA at Linkabit too.


By the end of this calendar year you will have some clearer picture of our strategy for GSM-CDMA dual-mode chips," Sulpizio said. "We have no plans or desire to go into the GSM chipset market. But we think we can add GSM core functions to our CDMA technology.


Given QCOM's grandiose claims over CDMA2000 and WCDMA, the quid pro quo is staring right at you if you dare to look.

Furthermore, the fast-growing roaming market is currently at $12-13 billion and available only to GSM and TDMA carriers. Do you understand now why there are already close to 100 GPRS contracts issued and close to 20 WCDMA contracts issued? Do you understand now why Motorola is moving the heavens to match the demand from the TDMA carriers in the Americas that have coalesced around TDMA-EDGE?
