Maurice,

Thanks very much for the explanation. Just one follow up question. If Pantech has been working on handsets based on Qualcomm's ASICs, why can Motorola replace their ASICs with Pantech's if they can't replace them with Qualcomm's. Does Pantech make ASICs based on both Qualcomm's and Motorola's designs? As you can see, I'm still just a little bit confused. lol

You said that nobody else has succeeded. Does this mean that no other company produces CDMA ASICs? I'm not familiar with the different chips in cellular phones. Which Qualcomm product does the CDMA+ chip from VLSI compete with?

Thanks very much for helping me understand this better.

Dan
