Lucius: We seem to be in substantial agreement on two different threads. BTW suggest you post your analogies here that WCDMA is similar to one ice cream flavor for Qualcomm (the ice cream maker) and that WCDMA is CDMA in drag. And since this is the thread it is I need to try to add some modest substance. Suggest that this is the US media's and US stock manipulators doing much more than that of the Koreans. The Koreans are having words and concepts put in their mouths which are not the positions of the companies or the government. We have FUD forces at work. Sure the Koreans want the most technology transfer they can get and CDMA at the cheapest they can get. But there is no evidence that either the companies concerned nor the Korean government are about to throw the baby (CDMA - a pretty mature baby at that) out with the bath water. What we have is Dow Jones claiming they have done so. And Dow Jones (and Bloomberg) have done so with internally inconsistent cut and paste "reports" (using week old quotes as if current) and false statements that the companies and government have chosen WCDMA - which neither has. The Koreans are being blamed for US press and speculators ((hedge fund, broker and bank)) manipulation it seems. No way to prove what Dow Jones is doing, but it stinks to high heaven. Best. Chaz
