Jay, As General Douglas MacArthur radiodx.com is rumoured to have said, I have returned [albeit two generations since my Grandfather's sojourn, ending in 1923]: <Shanghai has begun commercial service of CDMA2000 1X, the first city in China to launch the competing service against GPRS. Services include mobile data, WAP-enable web surfing, and Internet access at 153.6Kbps. Unicom's Shanghai branch said the decision to launch 1X service now is aimed at the explosion of SMS during the Chinese New Year. The service is free before official rates to be announced in March.> siliconinvestor.com This time though, I have Chinese shareholders too, so that they won't feel the need for another Boxer Rebellion. smplanet.com The avaricious, greedy, rapacious and reptilian 19th century has given way to free choice, voluntary association and the joys of ... you know... cdma2000's phragmented photon anodyne powers to create peace, light, harmony, happiness, prosperity, longevity, fun, contentment and love. It is so exciting that you have joined the QUALCOMM Q club Jay, with your hard-earned, scrimped and saved nausages. My mother would be ecstatic, peace be upon Her. Shanghai, from where she departed, is the location of cdma2000 1xRTT-propelled wireless cyberspace. Brought to you by Mq! Imagine if 1,300,000,000 people in China, plus a bunch of CocaCola and other machines, each buy 1 cdma2000 device every 2 or 3 years. My abacus tells me that at Q20 per gadget, that would be a lot of money for QUALCOMM. Heck, just getting the first one to each person would involve a LOT of Q. Chinese maths is a lot of fun. Imagine if they then start messing with BREW, Q-chat, gpsOne and Graviton.com is loading transducers all over the country, feeding into cyberspace and receiving instructions from it. Imagine if they start insisting that all trade be done in Q, rather than Imperialistic US$. Drool, drool, Mqurice
