Has Nokia ever successfully manufactured asics. My recollection was that they didn't work well so they kind of gave up.

Nokia's 5185i uses an internally developed chip....it has been accepted by Verizon for sale.

Any opinions as to there CDMA wCDMA asic manufacturing capabilities?

No way to tell....I think it is probably unlikely that they will meet the end of 2001 timeframe for 1x handsets. However, I do think that Nokia has increased the stature of IS-95 projects within the company. They are probably throwing more resources at the IS-95 projects than in the past.
