Eric is doing the GSM phones so a delay there would be a hit and a set back in a large potential market - China. Qualcomm could not be expected to pick up any slack in the GSM region as they are capacity constrained as it is with the CDMA products. China Unicom might want to exploit the situation and push the G* phones. At any rate, the initial phone order to G* was not big enough to carry the day. Qualcomm's $1 billion cash haul yesterday will set them up with more capacity, but no way it can come on line by 2000. I would like to see more positive announcements on fixed and mobile phone orders. From what I have been reading, the Chinese are seriously into phones as a way to increase their business prospects. They have been paying large premiums to get a phone (cellular premium as opposed to waiting on a fixed line) who knows, maybe we can round up a couple hundred thousand image conscience Chinese who will spring for a fixed G* phone.
