Mani - <I mean no disrespect PB. I also realize that such Inconsistencies happens to all the time, to all of us. But when I mentioned it you said you did not say that, so I digged it up. You said "ahead of schedule" in several posts :)>

That was 9 weeks ago. It was clearly ahead of schedule at that point. My stance now is that it is at least on track. I.e., it is no worse than "on schedule". As the ramp progresses capacity wise, and production spreads to other fabs, the degree of visibility goes down, as I am not a pure manufacturing person. However, the degree of visibility I have enables me to feel confident enough to make the above statement.

A ramp isn't static Mani. Also, the nature of my position portends that as P858 goes more and more mainstream, the amount of detail I am subject to will decrease over time due to a whole host of factors. This is incremental. I have to reflect this in the nature and tone of my posts.

Anything I say I believe to be accurate in real time. I believe what I said then, I believe to be true what I say now.

Do I need to explain this further? Please feel free to express any issue you may have. I will genuinely try to answer you as best I can.

PB
