Ericsson Sees Mobiles With Microbrowser in 2001 STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - Swedish telecoms equipment maker Ericsson (LMEb.ST) said on Friday it did not expect to begin releasing new mobile telephones equipped with a Web browser from U.S. software giant Microsoft (NasdaqNM:MSFT - news) until early in 2001. Ericsson's consumer products marketing director Jan Ahrenbring told Reuters that products developed in 2000 through a ground-breaking alliance between the two companies would be infrastructure solutions, rather than handsets. ``In the beginning of 2001 we will have a telephone with Microsoft's Microbrowser. I believe it will be the first telephone developed through this cooperation,' he told Reuters. Ericsson and Microsoft unveiled plans on Wednesday to create a company offering Web browsers and e-mail over mobile phones in a deal promising to free the Internet from wires and lead to new mobile Web-linked applications. Ahrenbring said that in the autumn of 2000, the two companies would be able to provide convenient access to office e-mail and information on existing mobile telephones. ``You will get seamless access to the information that you have in your workplace all the way into your mobile telephone,' he said. There would be no need for specially adapted mobile phones for this technology, he added.

MH: The continuous rejection at the $400 level is disconcerting. I believe the split is factored into Q's stock price. Q could be dead money for awhile after the split - smells similar to VOD which did the 5:1 split. Institutions & individuals will lighten up on their weighting of Q in their portfolios IMO. I believe that the handset sale and to whom is much more critical is moving Q's stock price forward from here. The extreme bullishness on this and many other threads is also worrisome. Always need to look over one's shoulder. Good luck to you. jmanvegas
