Re: Jim Mullins' post # 44062, I hope you keep it up. I know popularity isn't your objective, but wanted to assure you that for at least some of us out here, the opinion of a non-cheerleader is welcome relief from the perpetually positive pap of some of our more "enthusiastic" posters. Thanks for helping keep the thread honest. I see no contradiction in your maintaining a QCOM position without your being a groupie. I still maintain my position, and I like to humor myself that I look at the Q objectively. Not perfect, but on balance damn good.

Isn't GSM1x in business with China Unicom? <Fortuitously the "GSM1x Network Solution" has now long since vanished from QUALCOMM fantasyware, > Maybe I missed something bad. I can't find recent sales reports, but Unicom's "Worldwind" was doing okay here: ecoustics-cnet.com.com <>"We have resolved to be a first-class global enterprise--our ultimate goal with our international strategy is to leverage our CDMA technology worldwide," Wang Jiangzhou, China Unicom's chief executive, said in a statement accompanying the phone announcement. He added that sales of hybrid handsets are outpacing supply. "We're facing a shortage of Worldwind phones. It's been selling so well that we don't have enough stock to meet customers' demands," he said.... continued... > Maybe you meant GSM1x has left fantasyland and is now in 3D. Mqurice PS: In regard to negative descriptors of Dr J [or anyone] I prefer to form my own opinions as I find other people highly unreliable [especially if they have an axe to grind]. Edit... carrying on downstream I came across Jeff Vayda coming up with the same expression, albeit with American spelling: <as though you have some particular ax to grind* with DrJ, et al.* >
