Eric: Thanks. Very much appreciate full, detailed, thoughtful reply.

As for your last point, I am not "bashing" Europeans, I am trying to support European consumers' freedom of choice.

Re your primary substance.

The beauty of the Qualcomm / Ford vision is that it is a thin client - fat server approach. In that context, the speed and robustness of access over the connection between them - internet or intranet - is crucial. That was my context.

And on timing, next year is when robust data interchange is practical in current spectrum using CDMA/HDR (1xEV). New spectrum and the delays thereto are irrelevant.

Best.

PS Your concept of "docking station" and mine are congruent.
