I think the fallacy of the statement is that men from the South are gentlemen; since i was born there, where stills grew to the sky, I can say that very few of the slight ladies or even the heavier ones ever confused me with a gentlemen; On a lighter note, while Q rockets up( depending on where one bought it), I have this distrubing Q-estion that has not been addressed; perhaps, its just the old paranoia asserting itself; and Dr Id , could help my ego or super ego; but, I am fearful, that the basic question of Qs Patent Q-ality in a Wcdma world eludes me; The Martians and the Nokians have not come to the table; I know and have had personal talks with the Martians; they have numerous Wcdma patents On Mars, Mercury and Uranus; they are waiting to make a Deal with Q as their patent position strengthens; I believe the Nokians are doing the same; and it keeps me up at nite> Q is the primary patent holder; but as I have been told by Eric, and the Martians; not the only one; the Nokians are Not stupid and no matter how much fun is made of them; they must have good plans for not yet Joining the Value Chain; to me this Q-iet fact is very disturbing > I have bad dreams that Q will have to take a lesser portion of the pot and also not be able to design in over time more of its proprietary technology; This will be more that just a Gorilla with a bad cold; but, one with severe patentitis-- I do not know if this thesis is true; but I propose it in the Most gentlemanly fashion; as I am trying to mend my Southern ways-- And anyway, I hear the planet Nokia is lovely in winter; but I am not sure if it is South of the mason/dixon curve--- thanx, Steve Q
