Since you state that 379 is a support and if broken it will go down to 360, I believe people will have stop loss orders just below it. I think we will go to those stop loss'es (if large enough) and collect them along with those that short (at break of 379) and come back up.
Of course this is thinking from the manipulators point of view (who seem to have control at this point)

I agree.. but Q hasnt disappointed in those kinds of decisions before.. I am quite confident that they have some great news coming.. but too I agree that the stock needs this news desperately now.. impatience is building ..a bit tired of waiting.. 4-1 split has not a defined date.. he just cannot afford to disappoint now..

So what constitutes a "good deal" for the handset division, what is ho hum, and what is an actual disappointment?

Except to trust that IJ (father) knows best, I wouldn't know what to think if that Japanese manufacturer that introduced the visual phone buys it. What was their name anyhow?

For me, if Ericsson buys it, I'm wary. They already have infrastructure. Besides they are unreliable customers. Six months from now they'd be disputing this sale price too. I'd like to see CDMA spread out more, not consolidated.

Now, if Nokia buys it I gotta like that. Top handset manufacturer, and all. More European push. Besides it means that all the marriages between Microsoft & Qualcomm, Qualcomm & Ericsson, Ericsson & Microsoft would thereby be expanded, to include another powerful player in the agenda of pushing CDMA.

Q Management knows how to keep momentum up. Once the sale is announced *or* the split date scheduled I think they will follow with the second announcement. Remember that the HDR demo followed earnings. They'll not leave us high and dry.

BTW Bet ya didn't recognize me. I used to be quebrada. I had a cyber face lift done really really cheap in Tijuana. What do you think? No, that is NOT bondo! Jeesh

Greg,

Everyone seems to think that Nokia buying the handset division is the best thing. What if they buy it and slow down the CDMA sales on purpose and transition the manufacturing to GSM. Is this too far-fetched? It all depends on what is best for Nokia's bottom line.
