Art, << QUALCOMM had to have some pretty sharp management to overcome the impediments raised by its competitors >> They did ... and thats the exciting part. Dr. Jacobs at the helm then and now. Unsung heros in the background. Unproven technology, some slides, a demo system, prototype handsets. Spread Spectrum & Soft Handoffs. Courage and perseverance in the face of formidable competition. Like the early (Haloid) Xerox guys that strapped fire extinguishers to their early 914's or Dr. Land. - Eric -
