Qveau - I'd broaden the operational question.

What is the PROFIT Qualcomm receives from:

CDMA phone made by Nokia, ASIC made by Nokia
CDMA phone made by Nokia, ASIC made by Qualcomm
CDMA phone made by <other vendor>, ASIC made by Nokia
CDMA phone made by <other vendor>, ASIC made by Qualcomm

Plus

CDMA phone made by Nokia, ASIC made by TI
CDMA phone made by <other vendor>, ASIC made by TI

Plus variants where we have

GSM phone with multi-mode ASIC, phone made by Nokia, ASIC made by Nokia
GSM phone with multi-mode ASIC, phone made by Nokia, ASIC made by Qualcomm
GSM phone with multi-mode ASIC, phone made by <...

Etc,

And of course this varies by region (e.g. China has a different deal). And so on.

I think if we take this matrix and then start putting market share numbers against each of the entries and charting out the changing flows we might get a bit more insight into the importance of various deals.

Regards,
John
