The phrase of truth and more words of so called "wisdom" came from BUBBLE VISION this morning from Kudlow quote

"people vote their portfolio" ...... e.g. not their conscious or what will be right for the country.

This was mentioned wen it was discussed that Gore is bashing, rightly so, the drug companies about their pricing tactics, and that it will hurt the 100 million with 401K accounts.

Korea Mobile Phone Companies Choose Nokia, DoCoMo
Standard Over Qualcomm
By Ian King

Seoul, July 7 (Bloomberg) -- Korea's biggest mobile phone service
operators said they'll use a system allowing high-speed Internet access
developed by Nokia Oyj, Ericsson AB and NTT DoCoMo Inc., turning
their backs on a Qualcomm Inc. version.

SK Telecom Co., Korea Telecom Corp. and LG Telecom Co., set to
corner Asia's third-largest cellular market after a series of acquisitions
are completed in the coming months, are seen by most analysts as the
most likely to win three licenses to start offering the services next year.

Their decision is blow to San Diego-based Qualcomm because all 26
million of Korea's mobile users are now hooked up via cellular phones
using Qualcomm technology. The new networks will allow data to be
transmitted much faster than at present, allowing users to surf Web
sites, send photographs and even hold video conference calls.

``This is bad news indeed for Qualcomm, as Korea has been one of the
primary users of its technology,'' said Jeremy Brest, head of technology
for North Asia at Nomura International Hong Kong Ltd.
