THANKYOU MR. ENGINEER ! I for one will enjoy watching the Motorola scenerio play out knowing the entire time that the worse case is that Motorola grows the pie and funds R&D for QUALCOMM.

One of these terms was the ability to make CDMa ASICS for sale ONLY to licensees engineer, to be assumed, then, that "licensees" means Q's licensees, which I think is the fair import of the language in the 10-K. As far as MOT making chipsets, they have been trying to do this since 1993. It is now 1999...I would expect it to take more than 3 years for them to suceed at this business, if at all. In your opinion, where does this leave MOT in respect of its ASIC development, if it has been trying since 1993? Are you saying that the 6 years between 1993-1999 have brought them to square 1? Slightly OT in this whole ASIC discusssion, recall the posts about 3 to 5 weeks ago in which MOT and LU (I think) announced that they were going to join forces for a new wireless medium and commit substantial resources to a JV? Wonder how all this fits in. Best. Steven
