- Motorola talked about using 3 different silicon vendors (Freescale, TI, Qualcomm) competing across all tiers and technologies. Garriques specifically mentioned Q's "signficant" WCDMA win with Motorola.

- Motorola is moving their W and RAZR series (GPRS/EDGE) to a single-chip platform. If I am interpreting the comments correctly, TI is going to win a signficant amount of new business with their locosto platform.

It looks like Freescale sold out at the right time. If they start losing more business inside of Motorola they are toast. The WCDMA is just beginning to require a tiered chipset approach and that is going to require signficant investment....which is going to be hard to justify as Freescale's share shrinks.
