Hey Mr. Webster, what would you do if you are Jorma?

Now Jorma is thinking, what is a big road block to 3G? What if we find a dual mode GSM/wCDMA solution? Man, we can make tons of money selling these dual mode handsets during the migration period. Let's see who can do this? How about these guys?

qualcomm.com
this is available for sampling 4th qtr.

qualcomm.com
this is available 2nd qtr.

All QCOM needs is that GSM stack that we (nok) can cross license in exchange for QC's license. Well, QCOM wants us to commit to buying QC chipsets for 2 years. That is really no big deal because we couldn't make one that works anyway. With the help of QCOM, we can move right up first place in the CDMA market and concentrate on what we do best - design more colors.

It just seem so easy but that pride and ego thing keep getting in the way.

Ramsey

PS (to whom this idea came from, did I get it right?)
