<<They will sell their gold to get CDMA cyberphones. Watch the young ones.>>

I want to make a gentleman bet with you Maurice. Just go and ask your wife or yours friends wifes or girlfriends - "Honey maybe we should sell this bracelet or ring I gave you and buy a new cyberphone" Or I just want to see a young man selling his wedding ring to get a toy. DO YOU WANT TO MAKE A BET? There are only few reasons people selling gold and jewelry, women for health reason or sharks knocking on the doors, men are losing rings and watches when they play poker or trying to hide in hurry they are married. The ones who hold gold bars or hording coins are in no need to sell the gold to get the toy which will devalue or be replaced by better one within six months. Look at computer chips prices, write offs of only six or eight months old, because they are better on the market already. Within two years maybe all cellphones will become so cheap they'll disposable like cigarrette lighters, cheap watches are using same module what Seiko and other well known brands, yet is cheaper to buy the new watch with no name on it than replace the battery. List can go on.
