Hi, elmat,

What do you think the prospects are for the contenders?

I think the only way the US can recover the leadership in mobiles is if MSFT defeats NOK.

It seems to me that Nokia has lost its technological edge, and its pimping of technologies like GPRS and EDGE is one of the most counterproductive tactics I have seen taken by a major corporation in a leadership position. But I don't know if it will matter in the long run, when EDGE and GPRS and HSCD [sp.?] are long lost memories.

We know that the US through Q owns every bit of the 3G air interface. It seems that the OS arena can live in a fragmented condition, unlike 3G which can handle only one or two versions of the air interface.

Your astute observations welcomed.
