S100---Thought their were two other interesting thoughts not in your comments :
1) DR J made a remark in the Bloomberg interview that TXN and INTEL might end up being two of "Q" biggest chip competitors ( sets up the possibility of some interesting alliances )
2) Dot Wireless was bought by TXN week before last for 475 million dollars for 75 employees and God knows what else . They have several ex "Q" employees including the ex --Vice president of engineering from "Q" yet if I look on "Q" license list they are not listed . The purpose was to manufactured chipsets for the W-CDMA market . By the way NOK is a large customer of TXN . The reason I bring this up is that I am long TXN and could not understand the high price and purchase of this small outfit . Why not do business with "Q" itself ?

BEST WISHES
