You have a wonderful way of expressing yourself and your posts here are much appreciated. I dare say that I never expected anyone to be able to place Mqurice on the side of doom and gloom. Maybe you should send him a copy of Norman Vincent Peale. <gg>

<And what would you think, Maurice, if Globalstar came out with the "Get IT here" rather that Qualcomm? > Yes, I'd be pleased and yes, that's okay by me. But It would have less meaning with Globalstar, because It is referring to the Internet [albeit on a grander scale than most people think of the Internet] and Q! will be the creator of the recently announced 5G standard.

It was funny that L M Ericsson is still behind the play and are goofing around with 4G when 5G is now promulgated. They [and Nokia] will have to speed up to stay in The New Paradigm. 5G annnouncement here [anyone from Ericy reading this better get back to HQ and tell their R&D people to wake up and get moving if they plan on selling 4G in 2010]:
Message 14439746

Companies selling QUALCOMM ASICs could be licensed to attach the label Get It Here. Maybe SpinCo would be the one to do it.

The Oboe is making a lot of noise now.

I suppose we should be getting the big new announcement of the great, new, GlobalstarUSA offer for Monday following expiry of their latest attempt to get traction.

Will they use words like 'exciting' to describe their great new plans? Vodafone Australia did. I wonder if Vodafone Australia's shops are full of excited customers wanting to take them up on the great new offers - I would take big bets that the customers were NOT excited].

PS: Preliminary 6G specifications are also being prepared [see further down the article linked].

Hi Eleena. The search function works:

<...And what would you think, Maurice, if Globalstar came out with the "Get IT here" rather that Qualcomm? And would you not be pleased, from afar in cyberspace, that your thoughts in the marketing realm reached not only a group in Geneva, but also a group worldwide?>

Look, Message 18024506 Verizon has adopted "Get It Now" as a marketing phrase. That's remarkably similar to GetItHere. I haven't been offered royalties. Yes, it's nice to see ideas adopted [not that they copied - not that I know anyway, though I did suggest GetITHere to QUALCOMM way back then].

<...Consider the Oboe (forget Banshees, Vampires, Mummies and all things deadly as when they arrive, the Oboe is at its loudest)... The Oboe is an instrument (IMHO) of impending doom, a foreshadowing of deadly things to come. I hate the Oboe more than any other instrument on earth as its sound is the birth of fear. Yet, when apathy runs the electronic wires of this media, one does not need multimedia speakers to hear the oboe, as its chorus takes root in the thinking process. One leaves the terminal with doubt, impending doom, and must rejuvenate by means of silencing the oboe. It is very difficult, even for those who (as I do) clearly see the cup as half full....>

With the Nasdaq nearly down to 1,000 again and other markets swooning, the Oboe does seem to resonating around the world.

Meanwhile, 3D is sunshiny and beautiful. Leaves glistening, sky the sharp New Zealand blue [it's hazy in most other countries]. Clouds fluffy white, sharply defined. Spring has sprung. Daffodils, lambs gamboling, ducklings growing quickly.
