I know one of the LG directors is on their board, but I did not think that they had rights under the LG lic. I would be surprised if they did. I had thought that lic agreements were such that the phone had to be an LG phone if it was sold. They could very well ask Neopoint to build it, but not to direct sell it. I may be wrong though.

The true story is the CEO of Neopoint was the business manager who was handling the pdQ deal with LG and the boss at LG, Dr Juh got together with the guy from QC to start up this company, but contrary to the contrite little article in the paper, it was only after a few months of William Son being the business manager for the pdQ, that he ran off and did his thing with the LG backing.

I'll leave it to the reader to figure out what parts of the article were true and what was pure fiction.

Your right, it is Vodafone. I was in a hurry to catch a plane...
