Any thoughts? Nokia's strategy will be based on a new standard called GPRS. "GPRS does for mobile what DSL or T1 does for the PC -- it creates a constant state of on," says Sandelin. "You don't have to dial up and log on to check your email or see the Internet." He went on to show slides with Internet phones, wireless tablet devices and mobile PDAs based on 3Com's (COMS:Nasdaq) Palm operating system. Sandelin also shot down rumors that Nokia was having component shortages. "There are no shortages of components," he said tersely. "There are tightnesses, but no shortage. We will meet the goals that we have set for ourselves. Twenty-four months ago, it was impossible to get components. I know that other companies have talked about shortages, I don't know if they didn't make the right plans or don't have the purchasing power we have, but availability is in line with the plans that we have." Sandelin also suggested that Wall Street-style accountability has permeated Nokia's culture. "Certainly at Nokia, we don't say, 'I didn't get that because I wasn't at my desk,'" he said. "That doesn't fly anymore, and some of you may have found that excuse doesn't work for you anymore either."

Thanks to all the veterans today. When the Korean war ended, I had just finished my sophomore year of college. I knew that those crafty Koreans would start another war by attacking through the Fulda gap in Germany if I did not stop them, so I signed up for the Army and got myself assigned to Germany. I spent from 1954 to 1956 as a "Remington Raider", pounding a typewriter for an Ordnance company. During the time I was there, not one Korean tried to cross through the Fulda Gap! (They knew I was waiting.) This was my contribution to saving Western Civilization, Spud, and I thank you for your acknowledgement of my sacrifice. I know I did not do as much as George Bush,Jr., or Al Gore, but hey, it was the best I could do!

Good to know some of the younger folks remember. My Dad and uncles served in WWII; have older relatives from WWI, brother, Korea. On their behalf, thanks. Rick, 4th/14th Arty, USA, '65-'68
