So you're saying that Qualcomm's being unable to get components at a competitive price had nothing to do with their selling the division?

Clark, Yes. The timing may have had something to do with the component shortage but I don't think that was the driver. Dr. J has said that they went into infrastructure and hnadsets because they had to. They would rather stick to R&D.

Dr. J has said several times he expects lawsuits

Dr J always makes the most conservative case for his company which is good. I believe The industry will follow Ericsson's lead.
