Maurice -

1. Whatever we say or think about GSM its operators/manufacturers have deployed a worldwide system which clearly works and they have NOKA and ERICY two very shrewd companies as committed to it as the Titanic survivors to their life boats. We must also ask if they have political support and how much their countires depend on them.

2. China needs answering. GSM is there why aren't we - not next month or next quarter but today? If we don't get in soon we will find that all the customers capable of paying have got GSMs and all the ones waiting for service can't afford to pay!

3. Vapour wear yes BUT the longer they can drag it out they greater the possiblity that they will find an alternative. Maybe not as good as CDMA but will give them another lease on life until the next one etc. In the meantime we will be congratulating ourselves on how good our equipment is and that the only big market we've got is the US or rather a big share in it!!

I've said before that this business of mobile telephony has become political. Ask Tero what would happen to the Finnish economy if NOKA's technology were to make it's products obsolete and unsaleable?

I just hope we get another big market and soon and then some.
