Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God (Matthew 5:9). So many here have struggled for so long to find common ground between Qualcomm and her most fervent detractor, known most affectionately as Nokia. There have so many opportunities for these two companies to work together – Qualcomm designs a baseband CDMA chip and Nokia fashions a sculpted form factor with an intuitive user interface. Both enjoy profits from an ever increasing pie. When after many years mutual aid, they may have been able to cooperate to deploy WCDMA by 2002 and continue to develop phones, now with TI’s superb process manufacturing capabilities. <ng> Did Qualcomm start this fire that has now burned over many years? Can anyone point to a Qualcomm action that prompted corporate CEOs to decide that they’ll “never use a Qualcomm chip?” Was it Qualcomm’s hubris in thinking that they had the most efficient design to move beyond TDMA that started this? Did AT&T Wireless make their decision after their own exhaustive research or were slanders whispered at the end of a business lunch? Who would slander Qualcomm so cavalierly? Wither the peacemakers have gone, now, after all this time? Wither thou goest, I will go; and where thou lodgest, I will lodge. Eurobashers and head bangers unite on this most sacred of all web streams! The sheriff has left the county! The great unwashed are rushing to the pulpit to preach their special heresy. The horses and mules have left the barns! Viva la revolution! Peace be to all posters in this special confluence of opinions.
