I heard Ford kept sheep at one time because they used wool for seat covers. Was that a good idea? QCOM showed focus spinning off the handsets and base-station businesses. Iridigm is not the only route to better displays. Even if it were Qcom could not restrict it to CDMA applications. They'd miss out on many non-wireless applications, and be hounded for monopolistic behavior. And for what? The improved displays will go into the high-end handsets first. Will there be any high-end handsets that are not CDMA when Iridigm is ready?
