It's like having a China build-out that will happen. LOL! Given the fear and loathing beginning to set in in UMTS land I feel the situation there is screaming for Q to come out with a GSM/1X chip. A GSM/1X chip does away with the roaming issue, kills GPRS/EDGE, allows carriers to start building out immediately, handsets are available that work, allows them to get to 3G via GSM/1XEV, and would save the carriers billions of dollars. During the CC management said they are working on a GSM CORE in house and are also looking to aquire GSM IP. To me this is why they traded the crown jewels with TI, to me a GSM/1X chip would be far more important than WCDMA and could be why IJ said that 1X will out sell WCDMA for several years. It would also mark the beginning of a GSM/CDMA era instead of the GSM VS CDMA era we are in now.
