Lucent Technologies and Motorola Join Forces to Develop Advanced
Digital Signal Processor Technology; Companies Establish
Joint Design Center and Cross-Licensing Agreement
Tuesday June 2, 1:38 pm Eastern Time

AUSTIN, Texas and ALLENTOWN, Pa., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Motorola,
Inc. (NYSE: MOT - news) and Lucent Technologies (NYSE: LU - news)
today jointly announced an alliance to develop next-generation Digital
Signal Processor (DSP) technology and to cross-license existing DSP
architectures.

As part of the alliance, Lucent Technologies' Microelectronics Group
and Motorola's Semiconductor Products Sector will create a joint
design center, named Star*Core, in the Atlanta area. The Star*Core
facility is scheduled to open by the third quarter of this year and is
expected to complete its first core design by mid-1999. The two companies
will collaborate on core designs, but will separately develop and
market full-fledged DSPs based on those cores.

The companies will also cross-license each other's newest DSP cores,
Motorola's DSP56800 and the DSP16000 from Lucent. In addition, Lucent
will license Motorola's M*CORE(TM) microcontroller core.

Happening, yes, but for the little guy target is end of 1999.
So many problems to work out that this Sprint stuff is not on
my target screen for 3 years.

I think this Sprint announcement if very significant.
The convergence we've been reading about for years really is
happening.
