Wow. No response! Everyone must be too busy preparing to file their tax returns. After some looking around on Spectrian's and UltraRF's web sites, I do not have definitive proof that they are using an UltraRF part. However, IMHO it is highly unlikely that they would use someone else's amplifier when UltraRF used to be part of this company and there is a nice profit on the sales of these high performance transistors.

Nokia has launched the new handsets for this year over the last two days. As far as I can tell, the only handset with either a blue screen or white backlighting is the 8310.

nokia.com

Shiny chrome surface finish on the main function keys, power key, bezel around the display, and battery release button afford it dazzling detail. It also flaunts a white backlight. It is urban and independent, focused yet casual, making it a phone as unique as its individual users

This handset is Nokia's first GPRS handset....it will debut during the third quarter. Nokia tends to work closely with suppliers and use the same components across an entire of line of handsets....so hopefullly these are Cree's LED's. OTOH....I would think that this handset would have enough volume that it would have made it unlikely for Cree to have to warn. The two previous handsets that Cree supplies seem more like niche products than does this handset.
