Qualcomm and Nokia Dave, The following references tend to support Art's statement that "Nokia was forced to use QCOM chips, which were sold not to Nokia directly but to a Chinese company working with Nokia (and also licensed by QCOM)." ______________________________________ July 26 2003 "Nokia formed an alliance in May with Texas Instruments and STMicroelectronics to develop next-generation CDMA chips. The vendor team is initially focusing on CDMA2000 1X chip sets, already being used in Nokia handsets ." (From CHINAdaily News dated 26 July 2003) www1.chinadaily.com.cn May 16 2003 "The alliance [ Nokia, Texas Instruments and STMicroelectronics] also should put some competitive pressure on CDMA leading-light Qualcomm. However, both Nokia and TI have long-standing licensing agreements with Qualcomm, and the San Diego-based developer will continue to rake in royalties no matter what happens. " wirelessreview.com
