Molloy.....are you sure?... Same argument...another company.. Of course NOK has RF skills. Look they have built 35 Million phones. (So where is their CDMA phone today?) Of course MOT has RF skills, they are the number one leading phone mfg in the US, so they can build phones. (So why is thier CDMA STarTac 2 dB less sensitive than the QCP-860 and 5 years late?) Having people who can understand it and having product which works are TWO ENTIRELY DIFFERNT THINGS. Why did KYO not go with the DSP group and instead buy the QCOM group? KYO had been dealing with DSP for a few years on the PDC chipsets and could have bought them at any point. Why did they walk away from them? Could it have been that tough RF environment? I am not sure. You seem to be the expert on this stuff....
