<The fact is QCP was the worst executing division. The phones they turned out were terible>

I still have the first generation QCP phone and the Thin phone and both have performed as champs. The Q and the PDQ phone were failures, but all their other phones were successful. I bet if you asked Verizon and Sprint they would be happier if Q was running QCP today instead of Kyocera.

QCP served it's function. No one at the time was making CDMA phones so Q took the bull by the horns. QCP never made money, but I assume that many of early engineering efforts for QCT were performed by the QCP division. I think QCP played a big part in the success of what QCT is today.
