Eric L:<<Two great 3G contracts from the guys that are trying to retard the implementation of W-CDMA ... or so the story goes.>> Actually I assume that Nokia means what it says when it says it plans to be ready for UMTS next year - with the UMTS infrastructure in place and the handsets coming off the line like cookies from a cookie cutter. And this may be a benefit of the emerging competition from CDMA 2000. A roll out of UMTS sooner than would otherwise happen, and a shorter time span for GPRS alone. But that is why the refusal to obtain a license from Qualcomm for infrastructure on any flavor of CDMA and the refusal to obtain one for UMTS (W-CDMA) handsets is puzzling. Seems counterproductive, BWDIK. <<Answers (or comments) to your 4 questions have been provided by Nokia management at a link I previously provided you.>> Chuckle. Guess I just either missed those "answers" or found them not terribly clear and persuasive. But then, what happens re: China will become clear over time and that is enough. Best. Chaz
