UMTS (WCDMA) Chipsets engineer, << Zyray started from NOTHING and made a WCDMA chipset in less than 12 months. >> What handset shipping commercially uses Zyray's (now Broadcomm's) SPINNERchip 1.1 WCDMA co-processor or any other variant of same? I am not aware of one, but I suppose one might exist and given your association with them you should be able to give us maker and model. How about QUALCOMM? The 1st commercial handset using a QUALCOMM UMTS (WCDMA) chipset shipped outside of Japan in small volume in November 2004. << And NOKIA? >> Does this help?

Engineer, Re: NOK and “After 15 years, they can barely make a working CDMA chip? come on. How stupid are they there?” Perhaps you’re being a little too rough on the NOK engineers. After all, they are really trying and perhaps they’re “giving it all they got” according to their R&D expenses vs the Q’s.
