I think you all are missing the point. SCKT is dependent on the success of CE. As CE goes so will SCKT, although the relationship w/ CPQ and their Aero 2100 offering looks promising as well. Facts: 1. AT&T will recieve a 5bil investment from Microsoft in return for a pledge to use CE operating system. 2. Synchrologic on 7/19 announced its' iMobile Suite will support CE. iMobile is the most comprehensive set of enterprise mobile computing technologies available. 3. Microsoft on 7/21 acquired STNC Ltd. Leading edge communication software for wireless industry in Europe(GSM). Their products will be integrated into the evolving wireless platform based on the CE operating system. Etc. Sounds like Microsoft is throwing Billions at CE. Can SCKT catch some of the resultant table scraps. I bet they can. They support both CDMA and GSM. The potential is tremendous if they keep up and perhaps an alliance with QCOM would serve their future well. QCOM and SUNW are said to be developing a palm type device.
