Don E - Screw Europe Well its not Europe that is getting screwed it is the US.

If it was just a question of sales in the Common Market that would be bad enough but ERICY and NOK were instrumental in geting their countries to join the Common Market just so that they could have access to its 'commerical muscle' around the World as well. So the markets blighted for the Q include China, Japan, and maybe even bits of S America.

As I say I didn't expect anything else but the thing that really surprises me is the supine attitude of the Trade Dept and the Justice Dept the latter of which is mainly interested in doing as much as it can to damage the prospects of the one US company that has the clout by virtue of its own efforts, to handle 'difficult' overseas administrations......namely MSFT.

If they put as much muscle, time and effort into getting a level playing field for QCOM then the US would be better off.

Best regards,

L

<<Screw Europe. There are a lot more souls in ASia and Latin America. Europe and Asia are like the "old economy" and "new economy" stocks.>>

I guess those Asians will pay with virtual money since they don't have much of the other kind.
