- Japan actually needs something like WCDMA, as well as an entry, without reversing the channels
- China really needs telephones, huge market, agriculture to industrialism, and wants to have some grip on it
- USA loves patents and license fees
- Europe, especially Scandinavia, likes to get all going

- UK capital auctions were interesting, will stay so, until the game is over and done with.. game theory
has never been simple nor one step solves everything

btw, one big fight in EU is between the scandinavian countries kicking axx for opening the cards on the
table, while some major EU-countries are reluctant, one one specific has not yet even joined EMU,
but is well represented in FT and The Econo-Mist.

To give a quick snapshot, much simplified, of the strategy, it is something like this

- Finland does the fighting from inside
- Norway does the fighting from the total outside (oil and fish)
- Denmark does it from the background of a Nato nation
- Sweden holds the center ground, in EU but not EMU

The common theme is "openess", many finns have already got into troubles in Brussels.

Adding the future Scotland to the equation makes it more interesting, as well as adding some southern european
nations, and soon some eastern. (notice the little 70% media backlash in Italy, won\t last long)

Ok, Iceland has at least one great DSP guy and who knows, they might pick another
fishing war some day?? (considering their formerly and still strategic position, for the
conservatives)
