Jim, The Chicago Trib article and your comments suggest a Motorola
teaming-up on the level of 3G-WCDMA. In my mind it does not represent
such an alliance. They appear to be joining forces for the operating
system of the information appliance itself - i.e. without reference
to the air interface (CDMA2000 or WCDMA) that this wireless appliance
runs on. To that end it merely represents a position Motorola is taking vis-a-vis MSFT's Windows-CE, 3COM's Palm Pilot, and Symbian/
Psion.
As an aside, at this juncture I would wish to propose that in the future members of this thread ought to refer to ERICY's WCDMA as
ERICY's "WD40". It occurs to me that by now it is evident to all
members of this thread (though not yet to all members of the Wall
St. fraternity and public at large) that ERICY has no technical,
legal, moral, ethical, or creative role with "anything CDMA".
The words ERICCSON and CDMA when strung together represent a
technical oxymoron. Hence the moral imperative that we as enlightened
members of this thread commence use of the more appropriate nomenclature "ERICY WD40". Afterall,just like the real stuff that comes in a bottle ERICY's "CDwhatever" is just that same old slick, re-cycled,hyped-up, snakeoil, in a bottle.
