BFD. I can't even get video on demand on my cable modem yet. Who is going to watch video on a 1 1/2 by 1 1/2 inch screen. I don't see anyone carrying a "watchman" or the baby casio TVs I just want my wireless internet connection at ot better than my cable peed and hopefully rate. Volme seems to have picked up today. Almost 5 mil in an hour plus.

golf, My biggest worry about investing in QCOM is the possibility of G3 being a technology that has been created to not meet the needs of the users. I view the Cell industry in the same light as the PC industry. When was the last time you cared about the next INTC cpu. 1.3 gig, 1.5, 1.8 etc etc. your eyes start to glaze over in apathy toward what looks to be a technological advanced that is not solving or improving the users experience. You can dismiss the Korean news as lack of software or killer app., but how longs has that been true for the PC industry? ans. A long long time. So, will G3 be a technology that is in search of solution? Or is there a need in search of technology to support the G3 push? Looks to me that Korea will have to lead the way or the roll out will be even slower then what it is now. B
