Steve, Ericsson comments affected ALA . However 3G mobile system is not as
big issue for ALA like for obvious
reason for ERICY and NOK.
My opinion is supported by Alcatel comments today.
In fact ALA was always caution 3G and some analysts did not like in the
past.
License in UK ( free market )reached 30 billion $ for 6 licenses , where in
France socialistic government set the price
for 6 licenses at only 6 billion $. Germany case will be worst then UK.
I guess UK and Germany has to ease up.
Considering better then expected growth in data-networking and optical
business any potential risk on ALA in 3G is very small.
ALA is well positioned in Japan( Fujitsu/ALA JV) where license cost is not
an issue.
