However, Q holds more than 50% of the CDMA 2000 system. Matters not at all. QCOM doesn't get paid per individual royalty. What Q has are essential patents without which there is no mobile CDMA. Period.

Ibexx ---curious why China is raising 5 billion dollars for this new system ( W-CDMA )which I assumed is not available yet much less tested on the open market ? As an investor why would I put that kind of money in their current GSM system when I know it will be discarded in two to three years ( fact not fiction )? As an investor I sure would not loan China Unicom 5 billion to sit in the bank to draw interest why they make up their mind . The FUD is ridiculous --- BEST WISHES BILL
