Gregg, Great expository expansion of my pithy:
Japan/Korea okay, no sweat.
cdma rulz ok
Qualcomm shareholders get rich.

[See Ramsey, what'd I tell you 6 months ago about Asia, what everyone in the West would think and how it would end up. Bullseye eh! Dougjn has jumped in to Qualcomm and the great fear of Asia in 1997/98 is dwindling.]

But I really have to differ with you on Paradigm Shift. While I don't like jargon, I do think there has been a fundamental change, which is only beginning, in humans. The Web being one of the more apparent paradigm shifts which is incontrovertible. It is also special in that unlike birth control pills and those other NextWave accoutrements of modern life, the Web is suspiciously like an invasion a la "War of the Worlds". But it has arrived from within. Spooky.

Don't you think there has been a paradigm shift? In nearly everything. At the beginning of the century, human life was largely reminiscent of life two thousand years ago. Though cities were bigger, the industrial revolution was well underway replacing muscle with steam engines and gizmoes and internationalism was a well developed concept.

Now, there is a vast cdma-like integration of people into a common flux where each remains distinct, but is encoded into the whole. With a huge panoply of modern electronics replacing the brain with the Web. Who needs memory now? Or books? Click on a bookmark for instant recall of mountains of information.

And Qualcomm is in the vanguard.

Go Qualcomm!
