gdichaz,

Please print this post, and frame it. It can be presented to tero, once Nokia calls Qualcomm begging for chips.

Phone manufactureres are all commodities. The IPR that goes into them is not.

Tero: Your selection of who is not doing well in comparison to Nokia seems to this observer to focus on the weakest of the competition, Motorola.
Having seen that you pick and choose carefully in all your "presentations" here, it hit me that perhaps making comparisons to the fumbling (shoot itself in the foot) MOT, might not be just an accident.

Since the way Nokia will crash and burn (if that ever happens) is due to Asia, curious what has Motorola to do with anything - least of all Nokia's danger from Taiwan (let alone production of phones in mainland China) - just to pick a couple of real world possibilities.

How about the real problems Nokia faces, not those of the fumblers such as Motorola - the company that brought us IRIDIUM and stayed with analog (pardon me, analogue) beyond its time.

(And as usual an admirer of your unmatched skill at spin. You could have a great future as a political consultant.)

Best.
