So what the heck does this mean to us Quillionaires. C'mon Bill, 'fess up, lad!

It means a lot of money in our pocket, Morgan! One thing you want from a Gorilla is high margins, and this division, while profitable by consumer co. standards, is not high margin enough by Gorilla standards. The Steet is going to love it.

What we have now is a situation that could be compared to Intel selling PC,s in competition with the people they sell their chips to.

It is much cleaner, and more profitable, to be out of the handset business, IMO.
