Korean Consortiums have hundreds of members. What a nightmare. What would be the organization structure of this monstrosity imposed by the Korean Government. There is such a thing as having too many well meaning helpers. Will any of them make a profit. If this is sunc a great approach, how did Samsung and the operators get to 1X MC in record time without the Korean Government imposing this organization on them. JohnG hankooki.com Participants in IMT-2000 Consortiums Finalized The three IMT-2000 consortiums led by Korea Telecom, SK Telecom and LG have completed selecting partners.

"It's unbelievable to me that the CDMA report didn't move Q's stock price." It's the same old story. Most investment analysts/portfolio managers have so little understanding of the technology that they are unable to react to technology based information. A typical investment analyst is about 30 years old, trained mainly in financial accounting, and unable to grasp technology of any sort. What is really unbelievable to me is that any investors seriously follow these recommendations.
