Matador, << The Fortress America is being built and Siemens is sneaking in with a partnership with MOT. >> Shades of 1997. Ericsson and Nokia each looked east to Japan and allied with DoCoMo and so the compromise of the GSM MAP network and the WCDMA radio interface became a reality. Siemens and Alcatel looked west and allied with Motorola. Lucent did its own thing with Qualcomm. 3GIG became 3GPP. WCDMA (DS) and TD-CDMA in the UTRAN. Nothing new under the sun except the Sony Ericsson JV, except perhaps a more formal survival strategy between MOT & SI. Perhaps ALA/LU will also happen, but wasn't that tried already? Perhaps this is all for the good. << NOK will -most likely- not align itself with anyone. >> Probably not but somebody will start a CSCO rumor again. - Eric -
