Gotta love Altman's quote: <"If they’re saying that, then they don’t understand what it is they’re deploying," said Steve Altman, an executive vice president at Qualcomm.> Gee maybe that's why T is so far behind the power curve! Talk about spin...guess the shortmeisters and naysayers don't appreciate it when others engage in similar tactics. Apparently they are more than alittle nervous <LOL>

>>>Then Swayse, who says his firm has worked for both companies, said more. He called Qualcomm "pretty much a company of patent lawyers. They may be confusing people who aren’t involved in the wireless industry intimately," he said.<<< What a complete A**hole!

<Who’s right? Yeah, and who’s president-elect of the U.S.? Asked to play judge, Bill Plummer, Washington-based vice president of cell-phone maker Nokia Corp., backed AT&T. "Wideband CDMA is not about Qualcomm," Plummer said. "It’s not a proprietary standard. Wideband CDMA is the product of an open process of standardization with a large number of contributors. It is an entirely different system."> Maybe QCOM shouldn't license Nokia for 3G CDMA and we'll see how far Nokia's market share can drop in a WCDMA/CDMA2000 world. I'm beginning to think that AWE might be be the best short around. kirby
